Some angry lady today told me it was illegal for me to sell dish network from out side the US. I immediately opened the dish network web site and chatted an agent as follows:
Please wait while we find a Sales Representative to assist you... If your wait time exceeds
your expectations, please try again later or contact us at 1-888-347-4881.

Saqib Rizwan: Is selling dish network from outside the US illegal?
(01) Shirley S. 08Q: We greatly appreciate your interest in getting our services. I'd be
glad to assist you.
(01) Shirley S. 08Q: To better assist you, from what location are you?
(01) Shirley S. 08Q: Are you still with me?
Saqib Rizwan: Pakistan. I am in a call center. And I am selling dish network from here. Some
US citizen just told me that it is illegal to sell dish network from outside the US. I asked
her about the ruling of the American constitution about this. Is she right about what she is
saying?
Saqib Rizwan: I will quit this job if it is so.
Saqib Rizwan: May be you can put me wise on International Telemarketing Rules!
Currently experiencing network delays, one moment please....
Network connection re-established.
(01) Shirley S. 08Q: It is not illegal however we have limited resources. I apologize I can
only assist new customers.
Saqib Rizwan: Thanks for clearing.
(01) Shirley S. 08Q: Is there anything else I can help you with today?
(01) Shirley S. 08Q: Are you still with me?
Saqib Rizwan: Remember me in your prayers please. You just took a great burden off my
conscience. I need more research now thought. Take care please. Great day to you. Bye.
(01) Shirley S. 08Q: Thank you for chatting with Dish Network and have a great day!

NOW WHAT ARE THE REST OF MY AMERICAN FRIENDS HERE SAYING ABOUT THIS? I WILL REQUEST COMMENTS PLEASE.






Ignore this woman. You will always run into angry people and people who think they know it all. Now, you know she was wrong. So, don't give her any more thought or concern. She isn't worth it. Just do your job as you were hired to do. Big hugs to you honey!

Um....I have no opinion one way or another about who sells dish network from where, but you most definitely should NOT have put someone's name and address here! I'd really edit that out if I were you. Just saying......

Yea don't put out her address I think that's illegal

I will be mindful of putting some one's address like that in future. Thanks for guiding me.

forget the future..... I think you should edit this journal and remove her address from this ASAP. that is a lawsuit waiting to happen since you only recieved her details in a professional capacity. also, if anyone let her know this is here or if she were to get harrassed by anyone from here, you could and would be fired for sharing her information. this would upset me tremendously if a call centre rep did this with my information and i would pursue this with the company.

I am deleting her address. Thanks for guiding me.
