I've swapped cards between receivers in the past with minimum hassle. The CSR always says it won't work and want's to send out a new card but, it always does. Just seems takes a couple minutes longer than you expect.
I'd call them and try that route first before having them send a new card.

They have told me that the card belonged in another receiver and that they cannot do it when I actually tried but I talked to a tech before trying it and they told me that it was possible.
They want $50 + $15 Shipping (ripoff on the shipping cost) for the card.
Don't these cards belong to Dish Network / Echostar? If so then why are they charging us for them? Don't that make them the property of the customer? This is bull.
