Questions about buying Telus PVR Receiver
I was planning on buying the Telus PVR Receiver (CIS430500) to replace my Optik HD Box (CIS330).
My 1 year contract only gave me a HD box rental.
I have 2 TV's so I paid an extra $5/mo to get a 2nd HD box rental.
But I want to buy the PVR Receiver and replace it with one of my HD box.
And hopefully, I can return of of the HD box to save $5 a month.
I have a few questions:
1) Can I just use the PVR Receiver to completely replace my current HD Box, or do I need them both to get my channels + PVR? (And is swapping the units as simple as connecting the cables the same way, or is there re-programming required?)
2) Not sure if I can return the 2nd rental box mid-contract (but it wasn't part of the original contract, I requested to add on a 2nd HD box afterward, cause I bought a 2nd TV later on). I'll probably have to call Telus rep sales for this, but would be nice if someone with experience had the answer off the top of their head.
3) This is my first time using Telus, so I'm pretty noob. So if I buy this PVR Receiver, its mine forever. But if I renew my contract later on, which they usually offer free PVR Receiver rental anyway... then what's the point of me buying my own??
