I had a problem with my DVR and I was told to take out the Access Card and put it back in, etc. Finally, I was told to send the unit back in for a replacement and I did just that. However, I realized after I had mailed it that the Access Card was still lying on the counter top and I had forgot to put it back in. They never checked to see if it was in the DVR I had sent back so I kept it and asked later and they told me just to keep it in case anyone asked about it but that they didn't need it back. I still have it but of course I don't need it or use it so it just sits there unused.
If they had checked then they would have called me or emailed me for the Access Card. I know of others who have accidentally forgot to send their Access Cards back in so obviously they don't check for them. I would think that they would check because they wouldn't want someone to use that Access Card Illegally!!!
