I would like to thank you all for your reviews of Wild Blue. They sound similar to those of other Internet Satellite Companies like Hughes.net and SkywayUSA. I was very close to signing on the dotted line but I think I will check into a PC Card which at least if it doesn't work, I can return and I won't be stuck in a contract.

Some suggestions for you folks who seem to be stuck are to dispute the charges with your credit card company. My experience has been that they tend to side with you, their customers, rather than the business. Other options are to take them to small claims court but make sure to ask for all of your fees back, including court costs.

Anyway, I wish you all good luck in getting rid of this satellite service and look into PC or Wifi Cards next time if available in your area. My research suggests this might be a better way. If you get cell service where you are at, you should be able to get this service. The equipment is if not free, generally cheaper than the satellite equipment. Overall as far as costs, it is about the same for a 2 year period, it just seems like a lot less hassle.
