do a promo plan for one year - tell them you want options, and they will offer you the box for $99. i bought out my hd 500gb pvr for 99+tax earlier this month.

It's actually $98 :fuckyea:

I did that earlier this month :woot2:

the small one? and who did you talk to? retentions?

BTW, this PVR the motorolla DCX-3400 is freakin awsome, i cant belive how much more it can hold than my older silver motorolla PVR which was like $800 4 years ago lol

TheSalesman 01-18-2012 05:02 PM

What's the # for loyalty or retentions?

lilaznviper 01-18-2012 05:08 PM

my dad called customer service this morning and they asked him for our address and said we can switch the box and that was it.

Got a free upgrade to 50Mbps for no extra cost :D... now on hold and waiting online to get my router function turned off... lets see which one is faster.

TheSalesman 01-18-2012 05:25 PM

I just called and they said they wouldn't switch my old box.
lol.
DCT2224.
Too old? The guy didn't even know what it was.

what is the looking for? IMO the shaw service/PVR is hands down the best setup that we can get locally

Telus is god-awful, their guide is painfully slow and their box/remote combo is absolutely horrible, unless your sitting directly in front of the box the remote will not work, Bell is basically the same as Shaw but with the downsides of sattelite

She's upset with the channels, old basics like Spike wasn't included and the bill is around $45 after the frist 6 months. She's saying it's not worth it. Plus I can't add just a single channel, I have to add the entire pack.

Yeah, sorry for the late response :badpokerface:

Coren 01-19-2012 03:43 PM

I called and they wouldn't switch my sd box for an hd one. Best they would do was take $55 off of an hd/hdpvr if i turn in the sd box (DCT700 if anyone was wondering)

Coren 01-21-2012 04:56 PM

Just want to say that I bought a HDPVR (dcx3400) for $98 from shaw at the aberdeen chinese new year thing.
Digital Forum - View Single Post - After 'Shaw Secret Sale' discussion thread <- some info here, doesn't list the price. But you can also buy the gateway with 2 portal rentals for $148 at that event

Gh0stRider 02-12-2012 01:58 PM

no one had any luck switching old dct with new hd ones?

lilaznviper 02-12-2012 05:40 PM

I heard from my parents that people were just going to shaw office with their old box to get the hd box. When they started people were lining up outside to trade in their SD box

when i was at the shaw office last week i heard a guy say he was there to swap for a hd box. the rep said oh we can't do that and guy said oh i called and talked to someone and said i could. the rep looked up their info and gave them a new box....

i wonder if just saying that i talked to retentions they would give me one..... or it have to be documented on the account???

terkan 02-13-2012 12:10 AM

they'll look up the notes on their acc.. they write notes for each call even for minor things such as changing the phone #

-lincolnboi- 05-11-2012 04:38 PM
