Account shows leased instead of owned

[lkbenson1]

Yesterday I called Dish to activate a new 211K. After it was authorized I looked at my account online and the new 211K shows as leased instead of owned. I own the receiver and have the receipt to prove it.
I carry the Dish Protection Plan for $6.00 a month because the VIP622 that I do lease has gone belly up numerous times in the years that I have had it. My question is as follows: If Dish lists one of my two 211K's as leased would it be covered under the protection plan? If it is would I be better off leaving it as such or would I be better off contacting Dish and have the error corrected?
I realize that if I ever cancelled Dish I would have to return a receiver that I own but a used 211K is only worth around $75 or less.
Anyone have an opinion?
Thanks

There have been many posts like yours. It seems that Dish has a habit of claiming owned receivers as being leased receivers. If you contact one of the DIRT members here they will fix your problem.

The protection plan covers your entire system including leased and owned receivers.

Here is a thread on the same problem: http://www.satelliteguys.us/dish-network-forum/266397-dish-again-saying-my-purchased-reciever.html

To the OP, if you PM your phone number or account number, I can correct this for you

Thanks Speedy but I called Dish about 1/2 hr ago and straightened it out, I hope. I wasn't aware that the protection plan would cover owned equipment.
Thanks, lkbenson1
