    If this can help: I just signed up with SC. I ordered the dsr-505 and a 75E dish from KuSat and received them through UPS in 2 days. I had no idea how to install/point a dish but in as little as a few hours on a sunday afternoon I was all set. A signal finder helps tremendously.... I activated...

    DSR 530 rebate

    I can't confirm anything since I did not activate my account as of today but I asked my broker and he said: "no ppv but yes for the $50 programming credit on 1st bill" (I got the DSR505) So I assume one should be able to get the $250 for the DSR530 or I will have a not so good surprise in a month

    starchoice pay per view

    Correct, I would never plug the receiver but I was wondering if I could cash in on the $50 worth of ppv that new subscribers are entitled for (using their 1-800 number).

    starchoice pay per view

    hi everyone SC offers 8 or 10 ppv for new subscribers. Will I be able to take advantage of them if I do not (or can't) plug the receivers to the phone line. I know they have a 800 number we can call from the US but can you call and get these free ppv through the 800 number? thank you
