and express your concerns. Be specific about what you expect to get at no additional cost and get their promises in writing before making a purchase.
I want to buy a 37" LCD LED 1080p Flat Screen TV, probably a Vizio from Costco. I subscribe to a cable company where I get my cable tv, telephone and internet. After I add the HI Def (which I do not have now) for the new tv there will be a monthly fee for that and the DVR that they rent.
I spoke to a sales person and she said I should buy a Phillips DVR and they will give me the card to put into the unit to be able to get their stations and this way I will not have to rent a box from them.
QUESTION: If I go this route will I have any unexpected problems? Also will I be able to records any show from cable without being blocked?
