    I had the same problems.... but I didn't let it go on for a year. After 2 weeks of dealing with the same channels, the same time of day, the same issue I started making calls.

    HD "movers" beware

    No. No HD-DVR is currently available for swap. We won't swap a DVR for a non DVR.... well, the offer is actually available to do so, but I certainly wouldn't. Let me put it this way, HD-DVRs will not be sent a replacement for that receiver until the new HR20-250 is available.

    A few questions regarding new lease program for current subscribers

    That is not applicable to new customers. Sorry I didn't mention that. ALL new customers are required to follow lease program t&c. You can not activate an account with a used receiver.

    True, you didn't agree to the lease... and you didn't use your account to get the receiver. Well, what acctually happens here... is your friend gets hit up with a non-activation fee (up to $300) since he agreed to activate that receiver within 30 days, during which time you have to wait for...

    Is it OK to LIE?

    Are you sure? You are having bills printed and sent via that US postal service with an incorrect physical address, thus violating sections 1341 and 1342. You are depriving the local station of funds. They are paying to broadcast a signal which they claim that you can pick up. DirecTv is...
