uh...xxx*yyy*zzzz is the IVR line.No wait if its prebuilt and you dont need to make any changes ie youve got phone lines on all yer dual tuners.

Damn it! That number is supposed to be private.

REAL installers know that, and also know the number.

Now we're going to have yet another round of long wait times on it until this thread disappears.

EDIT: Thanks for removing the private phone number ITK.

That may explain why SBC installs didn't go thru today. IVR was too jammed up.
Very, very frustrating. Had to call in as a new customer and get activated under that option

I didn't mean to give a private phone numbre because it really isn't... as a customer, that's the phone number that apears on the receiver every time you have a problem...

Dish network should have one like directv, where you call and you don't have to go through any computers...

Right - and thanks again for pulling the number.

Guess some people should read posts a little closer.

Actually, it doesn't matter anymore. If that 888 # is called, and there is no open work order, or it is not a retailer calling in, the call is automatically dumped back over to the main system. Only the calls with an open work order that cannot be auotmated activated get over to that call center. That is why I posted that same number a while back. It doesn't matter anymore.

I wasn't referring to you, ITK. You're cool.

Larry - I agree with your concept, but it seems that the phone system on that number is having trouble with the load, and too many legit calls are getting dumped - at least where I am. Note that a single 800-number can be routed to different places based on caller's location, so that might be why we're seeing different things.

Always remember that your milage may vary. Different areas are mor than likely routed to different call centers depending upon location. I usually get the Blacksburg, VA call center when I call in(when they actually tell me - which they evidently are not supposed to do).
