Hey I just remembered that I have the DirecTV Protection Plan, and according to the website, it says that it covers:
- Covering the cost associated with replacing defective equipment, including remotes and receivers
- Coverage of wiring, satellite antenna, connections/switches and more
- Power surge-related repairs
- Dish antenna realignments
- 24-hour technical support
- In-home service calls
Do you think that would entail what I'm proposing here?
only the wiring that your equipemnt was originally connected to. Not additional outlets in the home.
I once had a service call that a customer tried a real fast one.
I get there and the two tv system is no signal. So I go outside ,no voltage at the GND.
I go back in and voila, the cable is discoed form the outlet. Reconnect and it worked. This guy thought he was gonna be a smartass and try to get free services by disabling his system. When I told him of the discoed wire he denied it.
Cust says, "oh I want you to wire these two rooms for me". I said fine, it's chargable. He started that 'oh no I'm under warranty' BS. I was incredulous. And I told him the system was fine and why it was not working. I then told him if he wanted additional services outside the scope of the work order, payment was required. He said he was not going to pay.
Please sign here...Have a nice day...
Anyway, if you want the wiring at your recivers replaced because it s not functioning, I believe the warranty covers that. If you want wiring replaced that your system is NOT connected to, you'll need to pay for that.
