Pay Per View

I just got my bill and I noticed that some Asian porn was on the order list. This is the 3rd time It's happened and everytime they were "supposedly ordered", no one was in town or I ordered other non-porn movies on PPV. This is pissing me to no-ends because they charge like $15 per movie. And when I call to dispute it and have it removed from my bills...they give me the run-around.

Before you get any ideas..I never watched porn in my life (way too quesy (?sp) and conservative for that).

Does this happen to anyone else?

nope but that does suck that you get hit with a porn bill if you didn't order it

Opi, who's your cable provider? Do you rent or own? The reason I ask is that I had a problem with the cable company sending me bills for my old address, which I hadn't lived at since 1998 - and the bills were for activity in 2000. It might be something like that.

Nobody buys the PPV porn anymore when they can just download it

Seriously, I would contact your company. Ironically, if that had happened to me, I would be calling COX cable to discuss porn lol.

I personally neve ruse PPV. If you're like me, you'd have them block PPV orders. Tell them you'll go to DirectTV if they don't.

Is there the possibility that someone's bootlegged a cable connection off of your wire and is ordering things on your account?

^ I talked to my some of my hoodlum friends, and they told me there is a way to steal your neighbors cable. Now I am seriously getting suspicious....lol

33girl, the provider here is comcast and I guess I rent.

I talked to them, and they are telling to pay first, and they'll give me a credit when it's all worked out. like hell I will!

You're right! Don't even think about that. Why should you cover them for their error?

You should just pay your bill minus the porn viewing charges. When funny things happen to my cell phone bill that is what I do till it gets worked out.
