Need help with a billing question. I'm looking at my mother's bill and not sure what is correct.
1. She has 1-722 and 1-222. What should her equipment charge be per month?
2. She is still getting charged $10 for HD 250. She has AT&T bundle billing...is that why?
1. 722 is the primary; so, $0.00 since it is included with the base price.
$14/month for one 222 Duo (2 TV receiver); $6/month for DVR service on the 722.
A second Duo DVR (722) would be $17/month. I believe an extra 922 was said to be around $21/month with a $10 DVR fee; it has been a while so do not quote me on that. I know it is more expensive, though. I actually miss those $5/month credits for having the phone lines hooked up. We have two 222s; therefore, when we first started, the equipment fee was $7/month with the credit. Now it is $14/month. Quite an increase....It takes away the point of saving money with the Duo.
