HR20 update this week?

Anyone have any info on what else might be in the update?

I believe this CSR is very much mistaken. Take a look at what’s going on in the CE forum. There is likely a new NR coming in the near future, but probably not within the next two days making it by the end of September.

There will be no national release in September .. I can say this with certainty.

Even when they roll out a new NR it takes a while to get to every box. I doubt it would make it in the last couple days of the month. But this is really splitting hairs.

I just called the VP of CS office and had them check for a release and he was unable to find any release for the HR20. He did say that are working in it but that once its done it has to be approved by the FCC and then is released by time zone. There is no date set for the fix as of yet.

Guys, I just talked to Roger Rabbit, "Master Almighty of All that is Good and Right AND D* chairperson, to boot, and he said the "Department of Flakes and Nuts" was already in progress in approving the next NR, so there! !Devil_lol

What do you mean that my story has "credibility issues?"

Here's hoping that UFO will stop past again tonight so I can go for another ride. :lol:

Basically I have never talked to him/her but there are others that work in the VP office that field calls all day. Yes they work on Sundays. If you dont believe me then I will give you the number and you can call it this sunday.

Don't get me wrong, just I have never known an executive in any major corporation to work on a Sunday (or any other day of the week for that matter )

My guess is the "executive" herself does not work on Sundays, but the staff of CSR's whose job it is to handle critical customer issues does. In fact, I doubt the CSR's that claim to work in the VP's office are actually anywhere near the VP. They are probably just better trained CSR's with more authority who exist to handle problem issues. Saying that they are in the "Office of the VP" makes the customer feel like their problem is being treated with more importance. I'm not saying this is a bad thing, just that this is a common practice in the world of customer support.

It did say the "VP of CS office" was called, so it was a little Yoda-esque, but I took it to mean he called the office of the VP, not the actual VP ...

I can say that I have emailed the VP and that I have had calls back from people supposedly that work in the office of the VP. They have given phone numbers that match what I have and I am able to get ahold of them by calling back. They are always more intelligent and are much more professional.

As a matter of fact last week I was trying to send them a email that I had recieved about an offer no one at D* knew about. I was told they dont get incoming emails. I sent the email to the VP with the name and id number of the person I had been working with and I got a call within a few hours. I am not saying they do work in the office of the VP or for him but they are alot more helpful and always answer the phone by saying Thank You For Calling The office of The President How Can I help You.

Yes it does and I can say with certainty that there will be no new national release in September (of 2008).
