You could buy a card, and when it got low, buy another and change your credit card number with Dish or DirecTV (I know you can do that easily online because I've done it before). As an Escapee member, you'll be giving them a US address, and the Walmart cards are from US Banks/American Express/etc.lryrob9301 wrote:Popsie wrote:
It seems that you could join Escapees and set up a mail address in Texas. Then you should be able to sign up for Dish or DirecTV services for use in the US.
The problem with this is both Dish and Direct require a USA credit card for billing.
That's what I have been told as well.
After all, it's not like Dish and DirecTV don't want your business, they just want to be in compliance with the government rules. They aren't going to send out private detectives, they will be perfectly happy with a US address (Escapees) and a US credit card (bought from Walmart in the US). Where am I wrong with this thinking?
