If you don't have HD or subscribe to ethnic specialty programming you can pick up the 2 input 8 output multiplexer they sell at Bell World.

It's the STB. I had the same issue with both my 5900 and 9200 receivers. If I'm not mistaken, the distinctive ring can be turned off through the preference options in call answer. ***Just checked Bell's Website Dial "*49", listen for a long beep.

AFAIK Retailers do not stock rental receivers. They sell a rental kit that has the rental certificate number, rental contract, and information. If they left the store with hardware it is not rental but an Out Right Sale.

The small antennae is for the RF remote control. You still need to hook up a coax cable to get the signal from the dish to the receiver, and cabling to get the signal from the receiver box to your TV.

My case was that another tenant was moving out and decided it was much easier to take my dish instead of theirs. If they had bothered to connect my coax to their dish, I never would have even known. It was an easy fix for me to get signal back though.

Which is 58 or 59 days earlier than the date they would charge the $25 fee. Late transfer is no excuse for having your account in arrears for 60 days.

I did this a few years back for an apartment I was in. It worked really well until someone stole my dish one day. :mad:

The Executive Office will fix it. There only job is to fix problems, and I'm sure they have a heavy workload. ;)

I don't think that someone who has a TV without a video input would be buying either a 6131 or 9200, they would most likely get a 4100. My parents recently got rid of their 20 year old Electrohome TV, even it had an S-Video input.

I'd rather have someone be honest and tell me that they haven't been told which package it's going in than lie to me.

Are you recording with a VCR or a DVD recorder? Are you connecting the recorder through the SVHS or the video out? I was under the impression that the output of the SVHS will not work with a DVD recorder but the video out will.

Then they should offer existing customers the option of signing a two year term if they aren't on a term or completed any existing term, same as cell phones. I remember when I first signed up, it was a fantastic deal, something like $100 dollars off, and $100 in programming credits so I'm not...

I'm sorry but their records show that you weren't charged for those movie packs, how could you expect them to credit you $26 if they weren't able to see those charges? I understand that there was an error, and they should have been able to see the charge but you can't call the person a meathead...

I know that, I used to work in a Bell store. What they are suggesting I do is against company policy, and their franchise agreement. That is why I say it is not above board.

I had a feeling that it involved Lefevbre Electronics because the used to use the "getabell" address for their website. I am willing to bet that these are refurbs. I guess that by using the Bulmer Ave address they are able to keep everything separate from their retail location (which is also...
