The plan is designed to be a full month or 2 full months or 3 full months, etc. If someone somehow got Dish to pause that service it was done my mistake and mistakes certainly do happen. Do not put a hold on the account as that costs $5/month, every month. I have heard that some have called and used a magic word (cancel, suspend, hold, pause, something) and the days left of the account have been retained. It's not meant to be that way but no one is saying you can give it a try. Just understand if they say no, they are doing the right thing.
The problem has to due with the date within the month that you suspend your account. Call Dish and ask the exact date within the month that you have to ask them to suspend the account.
