Activate in US and bring it to Canad

[mmx20115]

I have a ViP222k that I purchased on ebay with the internal smart card. My buddy lives in the US. What would be the best way to activate it.

1. Bring it to his place and have him call DISH and have it turned on.
2. Do it from my place in Canada with a Voip phonewith his info

I have read they do audits if it is not plugged in, if it is on his account should I bring it to Canada and plug in phone cable to avoid audits?

If they call him, could he just say its at his cottage? Any other options would be helpful.

Cheers:up

You're asking advice on how to best do something that is illegal? Don't think you will get much help here. And $5 says this topic will be closed soon.

How is it illegal to pay for a subscription, Dish doesn't care, the CRTC may care but as long as dish gets their money they could care less, thanks for the tip legal eagle

Dish subscriptions for use in Canada are illegal. You can contact Dish for all the details.

Dish cares if the receiver is not at the physical address on the account. That is called account stacking. Your first post here and you ask that? Get a life!

Account stacking is illegal and not condoned here
