It is against their policy, and will result in immediate account termination if they find out.

Technically, it will work fine.
 
Lots of threads on this - search is your friend. Short answer is "yes", although there's a "Bell" way (mucho hassle) and a non-Bell way (just do it).
 
The official Bell answer is Yes but only 1 location at a time can be active. To do it this way you must call Bell and ask them to de-activate your home receiver and activate the one in the RV when you are heading out, then when you come home, you have to call again and ask them to reverse the procedure.

A huge pain in the backside but that is the official policy.
 
truth is Bell does not care if you take it along to the cottage or whatever. They were forced to come up with a policy when other service providers complained and sued Bell for unfair practices.
 
A rule would take care of legal obligations, thousands spent to policing said rule indicates to me some desire of this absurd blocking of technology. Wonder why we don't have a car that runs on water?
 
I agree that account splitting does lose them some money. I am talking about you taking your receiver on your account on vacation to your cottage.

You are paying for the service and where you enjoy it does not matter to bell.
 
I woudn't say it doesn't matter to Bell...if that was the case they woudn't have hired the SAT team, responsible for calling clients which receivers are not "dialling out" from them to try to convince the user to open another account for his cottage and not get these hassle.

If you use Videotron, or a cable compagny, you need to open 2 accounts, one for the home, one for the cottage. Bell over the years has tried with that SAT team to get the same thing, with little results, since service was originally sold and installed for a lot of clients for both their home and cottage.
