I think I know the answer but I would like to get confirmation for the experts here.
For years (10 year customer) I've always purchased and owned all of my own equipment because I couldn't see paying Dish $$$ up front for the honor of leasing their newer receiver models. That changed when I got the 622 because I was offered a 622 for free (12 month contract) and only paid a lease fee which I ended up not having to paying because they classified it as my primary receiver. I did, on the other hand, have to pay receiver fees on my owned 211 and 222.
To avoid the additional $7 a month equipment fee on the 222 (TV2 isn't connected to anything), I think I'll sell the 222 and get a 211k.
My question is if I get it from Dish (lease it), do I get charged a lease fee & receiver fee or just a lease fee? For those of us that have leased 622/722's as our primary receiver, are they going to start charging a lease fee?
