How would Dish know what you purchased off Ebay?
They wouldn’t, but they did know I had one activated on Google assistant with my H3. O to MyDISH-upgrades-remotes and accessories-voice remote/check it out then check eligible.

My mydish says "Your current voice remote is already compatible with the Google Assistant." No free one for me.
That’s hat I got. Do you have a 54? Our H3 came with a 52 but the 54 with the backlite and button layout has become much easier for me. I was hoping to score one for the bedroom Joey.
I have eight 54.0 remotes that I purchased. Six are in use and two are spares.
I already had four of the 54.0 remotes, and they still sent me one of the new ones for free.
I had to purchase one of the 54.0 remotes. The other three came with the receivers. Dish emailed me about the free remote upgrade. They seem to be picking people at random for these.
I just received a email from Dish offering a free remote. I went to the website and they are sending a 54.1 remote at no charge. Is this a new promotion?

Out of the blue,
I did not request it.
We have H3, 3-joeys,

1 unit has a single 40.
We don't like the 54 series.

Yep, my 90 year old dad got one and panicked right away thinking they were going to charge him extra for something or that he would not be able to use his old 40s remote that he has had for years. Only took me like 5 years to get him use to that remote and he has directions in his hand writing right beside his chair for when he gets confused. I told him right away to give to my sister and do not use and that Dish was sending them out for free. Do not want to have to re-teach him all about a new remote! ;-)
Just checked MyDish and it said I already had voice controlled remotes. No matter how long I stared at the 52.0 remotes, I couldn't find the voice button.
Started the Chat with Dish. Good old Gilbert was anxious to help. He checked and told me that I didn't qualify for the free remote. After only rising to about 3 on my surly scale pointing out my over 20 years with Dish at or near the highest level of programming and always upgrading to the newest receivers, it was odd that I didn't qualify for a stinking free remote. OK, well maybe 4 on the surly scale. Of course, good old Gilbert came through.
I don't want anything to do with voice activation, but really do want a back lighting.

Maybe people are lonely and need something to talk to...

Do they email any tracking info for these things? They offered one to me, I filled out the info to receive one...still waiting.
Ha! That is more true in my case than I would care to admit.
For me its not about the remote. After sending them almost $12K over the years I figure they can stand the $18 hit even if I never use the damned thing.
Thanks for reminding me! Tomorrow is my 20th Anniversary with Dish!
Happy Anniversary.
We’re not able to review account specific information on Satellite Guys at this time, but you can reach out to our Chat teams by clicking this link: Direct Chat. We have agents ready and willing to assist! -Kevin J.
Can you pass along the suggestion that Dish should automatically send out an email with the tracking information as soon as the item ships? I love my free remote, but I also wish that I had gotten a tracking number, so that I would have known when to expect it to arrive.
We appreciate your feedback! We will pass it on to our back office. -- Jake B
