Here's A Twist
Ok, so now I get the attached in the mail yesterday...It clearly shows the protection plan for the term of a year at $0.00/month. And as far as this
The PP should be free for the first three months even if you ordered it from the beginnig because the initial installation carries a 90-day warranty.
For existing subs passed the first 90 days if the PP is then ordered, it will take effect after 30 days not immediately, and the monthly charge will begin after 30 days too, so you can not call right after some blown dish and expect it be fixed free the next day.
I decided to add the PP last week after the free 12-month thing showed up online, but I had prepared for it to be a freak. I was planning to call at around the 60th day from my installation to add PP anyway.
..... Not correct....even though install carries 90 day warranty if you sign up at any point before the 90 days are up then after 30 days from date of sign up have passed you begin getting billed.....you are correct on the second paragraph....and I will tell you you better be watching your bill because it showed on my activity the same way and when the bill was actually generated I was billed.....
