Directv no charge on bill

[Ramy]

Anyone know what this is for on my bill?

I didn't get charged but I have never seen it before.

Never seen that one. I wonder if it has to do with the DNS networks you get.

 

[Bob Nielsen]

I got that also. No DNS.

Did you order some BBC's(broad band converters) for the new H/D to come?

 

[Ramy]

Yeah more than a month ago.

 

[moonman]

Yeah more than a month ago.

Yes, me too!!! I believe it may let D* keep tract of how many of these things they sent out for some book-keeping reason or another...maybe they get to write the expense off or something??

 

[Bob Nielsen]

That isn't it. I haven't ordered BBCs (I have them but us a SWM) and the non-charge is there. As long as they aren't charging us for something we haven't ordered, I won't worry about it.

 

[jdspencer]

I wouldn't want to not be charged for something I didn't order either. But, we are talking DirecTV here.

 

[jcrandall]

I have it too, no BBC order, no DNS.

I think it may be from the SWM test Earl put together. Bob & I both have the SWM, did anyone else get this message on their recent activity or bill?

If that is it, they must be keeping track of what type of switch D* installed for account records.

 

[jcrandall]

Ramy, do you have an SWM?

 

[Ramy]

What is SWM?

I obviously don't have it since I don't remember what it stands for.

 

[Brewer4]

Single Wire Multiswitch

 

[Ramy]

Nope, I have a multiswitch.

 

[jcrandall]

Well there goes that idea?????
