Is any identification required to obtain a Dish 922 receiver at a retail store? Do they need a driver's license, or do they just care about a credit card?
Identification required to establish Dish account?

Thanks for the reply. I have no existing account, but would like to establish one. The potential problem is that I don't have any US identification, so I'm asking if any is required to set up an account.
You can buy it, but I don't think you can activate it without a ss#.
They used to offer a no credit check service/prepaid thing. I don't know if they still do, but you could do that if they do. I think it was like dish-flex or something.

broker
Sounds like it might be time to find a broker. Don't ask me how. I've just heard there are such things.

Thanks for the replies, guys. Looks like I'll be engaging the services of a broker if I can find one (suggestions via PM welcome). We have some strange protectionist laws up here that prevent me from getting SpeedHD or watching Formula 1 in HD. This is probably why there are more than 10 Dish logos on the roofs in my neighbourhood.
I have an existing dish with the domestic provider's logo that simply needs to be repointed, which a local installer will do for $50.
Thanks Bob, he's being a little evasive because most of his business is doing the installs for the domestic provider.
I am often in Pittsburgh on business - since the company is paying, it's Mitchell's and Rock Bottom every night! Beautiful city you have there, full of friendly folks.
Speed HD is on both Bell and Shaw
As for F1 racing, TSN holds the rights so they have to black it out on Speed
....About the only thing you can do in the US without ID is vote.
That's a great line. Did you think that one up yourself, or see it somewhere
?I bought a Bell system several years ago through a Canadian dealer and the dish came with a Dish 500 logo on it. I had a nice Canadian broker at the time. The crash of the US dollar eventually made that too expensive to maintain, but we miss seeing Canada.

so whats your business? use care at night at the waterfront.
the area isnt the best.
one nite there was a murder at the AMC LOWES, a guy got blown away at the snack bar.
Happy thoughts again
What waterfront any where in the world is a really safe place at night? Have never know of one any where very safe even the Seattle Pier (except maybe the ferry area).

huh thought they had it. Guess I was wrong
Funny how people give Shaw crap about their HD lineup but instead of carrying 3 or 4 of the same Canadian channel in HD Shaw carries sports in HD like BIg10 & SPeed
