Is it the same product box, or a different box just for shipping? Cause I still have mine if they screw up

How much would you offer for your 811?

be very careful with this. a few months ago a similar thread was on here. dish messed up with the boxes or something like that. the guy called up and dish sent him new boxes. they never adjusted the date on when the receivers needed to be back and wound up charging him for them. i believe it took weeks to work out and get his money back.

i would suggest if dish has your bank account number that you call your bank and tell them you are done with dish network and for them not to authorize any more charges against your account.

I would add, get boxes that the receivers will fit in. You can get these from a grocery store.

if you were sent boxes to send your receivers back, theyre leased..if you sell it, it probably wont be transferable to another account anyway... if you need a 811 just call and see if you can do the dishin it up thing for a 811

If you actually read the guy's original post before giving advice, you'd see he said that he owned the 811, and the rest were leased.

Yup...

Dish woud not lease me another receiver or swap out one I had for the 811 so I went to a local dealer and bought it. If I do sell it Ill send the receipt in the box

Have to be careful, the original paperwork really says the customer has to ship everything back so the process of having us shipping boxes is done as a courtesy, not a requisite.

the contract that I signed it says that Boxes will be shipped to the customer with prepaid lables for return. if the receivers are not.... etc

Also if it is done as a courtesy you might want to consider leaving the original boxes. the installer took mine and when i asked he said dish required it.
