Dish Network Cards: Your programming access for Satellite
TV
When you buy a DirecTV system, you need a special dish network card that is programmed for you to access all the channels. If you own a system and want to sell it to someone, the buyer must get a new access card.
To get a dish network card, the seller must first call DirecTV to de-activate the system access card. The new owner can then call DirecTV and order a new access card. The charge for the new card is somewhere in the area of $105.00 for the new card but they will receive a $66.00 credit if the old access card is returned in good condition. When the credit is applied, the new owner has only paid $39.00 for the new card and the dish network card is sent out immediately via courier along with a pre-paid postage envelope to return the old card in. When the new access card arrives, the new owner needs to call DirecTV again, explain that he has purchased pre-owned equipment and wants to start programming.
