Charged for a PPV event I didn't order

[nomorePPV]

On 1/31/15 I was charged for a UFC fight that I did not order and did not watch.  My wife and I were out all evening and could not have ordered it.  I was charged $70 for this PPV.  I chatted with customer service and they said I ordered it with my remote.  This could have only happened by error well before the event started.  They refused to reverse the charge.  I would rather not have to switch cable providers but at this point I feel cheated.  what can I do to resolve this situation?

Based on this post I was refunded my money.  They did it based on the fact that I had never ordered a similar event.  This is a positive resolution that I wish had been resolved when I contacted customer service via Chat.

I received my current bill and have been charged for watching mayweather vs. pacquio fight. I definitly did not watch fight, nor intended to order it. I had no idea it was ordered from my box until seeing bill, and being passed around customer service for 45 minutes. They could not give me a date/or time when it was purchased from my equipment. Only that it says ordered 5/2 6pm, the start of event. Also support over phone claimed the program was viewed, after this phone conversation I checked my dvr, and saw the program. Says 40 minutes of an 8 hour program were watched, from 6 pm- 648pm. Which I asked my girlfriend, she says she clicked on it out of curiosity weeks after fight. My only conclusion is that it was inadvertatly ordered during one of on demands pop up ads. I have never ordered previous fight, or events on PPv. Please help me.
