when you sub share bell can you get all the receivers then set them up at each persons house without plugging in a phone line and call bell to activate, is this ok to do or should you activate from one house thanks
I don't play with Sub sharing but if I was you I will tell to Bell that you use one or two receiver which is hooked on phone line and the others can't access to a phone line.
My father use a Bell sub then does not have phone line actived because he use a cellular phone.
You don't need a telephone line to activate a Bell second receiver. You don't even need one for your main sub !!!
Matter of fact, the installer asks you if you will be watching PPV movies and if you say you have no interest, he leaves your house without installing the phone line.
This has happened twice to me with legitimate subs. Once at my home and at a friend's house.
Gocuse..its the same answer I gave ya for DTV sub sharing...they can be activated from any house since its done via the satellite signal...but I recommend ya activate them all from the account owners house..
and again, same answer regarding the phone lines...not needed to be plugged in..used ONLY fer using the remote to order PPV's..
LK I have a question for you? lets say I order 6 receivers and they are deliver to whatever shipping address and name that I had given them, now when I call to have the receivers activated don't I need to call them from home phone and do they need to activate just one or all 6?
Oh and the damn idiots don't supply HDMI cables anymore with their receivers. They connect your flatscreen using disgusting composite inputs. So ugly.... You are left with going in town by yourself to buy the cable.
I had a fight with them regarding this and they told me to go to hell.
My bad, I should have said DirecTV in the USA Thanks anyway I was asking LK from the USA a master of all thieves now LK don't you break bad I am only kidding.
All the satellite providers now (DN, Bev,DTV, etc) are allowing ppl to subscribe without having a hard wired land line phone, since many ppl now ONLY have cell phones...so U can/must use the cell phone or whatever phone number U have on file with the company to activate it....
if yer thinking yer buds can call themselves later and activate their shared receivers, nope, that won't work, U must call FROM the # on file...
also, if ya order 6 receivers and don't activate em all at once, the company will be suspicious , why...when they activate yer account and receivers, its done all at once...so ya have to have em all "ready" for activation at the same time...thats the most logical and easiest way for everybody...but there is a way to reactivate a receiver later..
I think I know what yer thinking, that yer buds can install a dish later and they can call and activate an original receiver that U get, so go order em all now.... well U can kinda can do that if ya tell the company that ALL receivers are working fine when ya first call , and then U call later, when yer buds are ready, and tell the company that "somehow" the receiver lost the signals...they will just simply reactivate it again...and plymouth is right, they will need the card and box numbers
Also..with NEW subscribers, usually the companies will mail ya the receivers and cards, but will send out an installation guy (free) who does the usual 4 room free install..and he calls the company and tells them to activate em, once he's done and still at your house..sometimes he will use his own phone, sometimes he'll use your phone, it don't matter then...but U don;t have to activate all the receivers if ya don't want, but you're gonna get billed for em all either way..so activate em all..
whiskey..i'm not really sure what yer up to, but i know ya have something in mind...but I would need to know more details of what yer plan is, before I can give ya a better answer...unless maybe I already covered it for ya..
yep Mohammed..DTV is very lenient about most things...and if ya don't like what a rep is saying, then call back and get another one...sub sharing is guaranteed TV at cheap prices...just never plug in yer phone line...and everything is based on the accounts legit phone number and address...some ppl want a "secret" word/code with DTV, so others can't change their programming etc, but its not required...
LK: Why are you talking about DTV this way when you were contradicting Rush in another thread? do you have the slightest clue as to what you are saying on a day to day basis or even hour to hour basis?
You are the biggest obstruction to truth in this forum.
now LK don't you break bad I am only kidding.
