Well, let me ask you this, what if you have an HR-20 and your second receiver is one that you own? That is my case. I bought the R-15 prior to the whole lease thing. Going by that shouldn't I get out of the lease deal?
I don't think you're getting it. The HR20 is a leased receiver, period. As are all other receivers activated since March.
If you only have 1 receiver on your account there is no extra monthly charge.
For the 2nd receiver and more there is an "extra receiver" fee of $4.99 a month.
If you lease the receiver it's called a "lease fee".
If you own the receiver (i.e. you bought it before the leasing started) then it's called "additional receiver" fee.
It doesn't matter what it's called, it's 4.99 a month.
In your case your bill will be one of two ways:
1) R15 is the primary receiver, no charge. HR20 is mirrored, 4.99 lease fee.
2) HR20 is primary receiver, no charge. R15 is mirrored, 4.99 additional receiver fee.
In the end the HR20 is still leased, the R15 is still owned and you pay the exact same amount on your bill other then the lease fee is taxable in some states.
