Dish Police back in action.

So where does taking a receiver tailgating fit in? Guess it should be the primary.

You want the highest rent one as the "free" primary--the Hopper.

That extra $5 fee for no phone connection when that existed a while back was automated by the computer.

I found my old bill. It was June 2009 when they charged me $10.00 for two DVRs not connected to the phone line, but did not charge for the other two DVRs. I see that extra phone line $5.00 charge that was automated during this time. It read on the bill "TV2 Receiver Connection - (You Saved $5 By Connecting Your Duo Receiver To A Phone Line / Broadband.)" That was on my bill three times for three VIP722s. No mention for the fourth 722. I guess it was free.

I remember seeing that on the bill, that you saved $5. In essence if you did not see that then that is the same thing as being charged $5 for not having the phone line connected.

Can you watch recorded programs while your account is paused?

Can you watch recorded programs while your account is paused?

Yes you can. And all of the free and free preview channels are recordable.

i am former sky mexico dealer ..and the way they avoid theft is they make it mandatory for all recievers to comunicate with a master...by installing what they call a pairing bridge wich comes as a 2x2 or 4x4 .if the "master" is disconected then "slaves" imeadietly starts to loose signal and you get a error code. these work with their stacker tecnology or with dual and quad lnb..very simple to install.

Boy,it sure would suck if the master suddenly died,while waiting for a replacement all the other receivers would be out.

I'd guess they have ways to deal with that situation.

It must have been a big problem down there.

Teehar doesn't have a Ho.

That could apply if you have two TVs on a 722 and it dies, but really, s**t happens, not the end of the world if you lose TV for the one or two days it takes for a new receiver to arrive. Play some Bly-Rays/DVD/Xbox/PS3/Wii/PC in the meantime .

Also, what's with calling Hoppers "Hos?" Where's the pimp?

Well for me personally I could find something else to do, I guess not everyone feels the same way (including the rest of my household probably.) Just crossing my fingers that I never have to find out .

There's also the previously unmentioned possibility of... going outside! Lol.

Nah,are you serious?One reason why we don't have a Hopper,and if we ever do upgrade it will be for 2 hoppers.

Ho-pper and pimp Joeys. This is how Dish prevents account sharing these days.
