For anyone with a damaged credit history or no credit history at all, obtaining everything from a rental agreement or car loan to cellular services or premium television services such as cable or satellite TV can be extremely difficult. For a number of years the option of prepaid cellular has given many the ability to obtain services without a credit check and the safety of the innate budget controls that are a part of the prepaid option.

For those individuals looking for premium channels to enjoy in their home, some satellite TV providers now offer a similar option for those with damaged or limited credit. Dish Network for instance, currently offers the DishNOW service. The service allows individuals with limited credit to purchase equipment directly and then buy programming in prepaid amounts. The prepaid service eliminates the need for approval and credit checks, helps assure that users stay within their budget by eliminating any monthly bills, and yet provides great home entertainment at an affordable rate.

Users of the DishNOW service purchase a satellite receiver and its installation for a single room. Once installation of the satellite dish and the purchased receiver is completed, the user can buy the programming package of their choice in $30 or $40 increments. The DishFAMILY package and Premium Movie packages are under a $1 a day, but Americas' Top 100, 200, 250 and Dish Latino, LatinoPlus, LatioDos, and LatinoMax are also available. In addition to these popular programming packages select international and adult programming options are offered.

Although few would recommend prioritizing the expense of premium television programming for anyone without a solid financial foothold, there are a number of instances in which such a service would be beneficial. Just a few examples of those who would most benefit from such a prepaid service would include:

• Newly independent individuals who have not yet established credit. This would include those who are no longer minors or perhaps someone emerging from a divorce who has not yet had the opportunity to establish credit in their own name.

• Those who are not yet citizens and have no credit card or no credit history established.

• Those who are emerging from bankruptcy and currently have a stable income but a compromised history.

Programming options are greater with regular satellite TV service and in many instances, customers do not have to pay for installation or equipment. However, for those without a credit card, damaged credit, or no credit history the option of prepaid entertainment is one that may make sense.
