Hi folks,
I have been a loyal customer to DirecTV for 5 years and I called them to inquire about the HD DVR upgrade. They offered me $199 for the HR20-700 HDDVR. So I thought that was it, I owned the equipment out right. Now after reading more about DTV's leasing terms. I realize that I will get billed for $4.99 a month for the lease of this HDDVR? am I correct? The $199 is just the cost to upgrade to HDDVR, and I have to return the equipment to DTV when I no longer subscribe to DTV?
In addition, if I understand their terms correctly, my other receiver in the bedroom (an old standard receiver) still incur a $4.99 charge for the additional receiver mirroring.
I tried the search function, but these questions don't seem to come up.
thanks.
