Can I replace a remote for free?

Greg2600 join:2008-05-20 Belleville, NJ	Can I replace a remote for free? Dog keeps eating them! I went to a FIOS store a few weeks ago, and he gave me a used one. He said I'm entitled to one remote per box per year free. Hadn't heard that before. Doesn't appear to be a way to order them free on the web. He said to use the menu on the STB. I haven't tried that yet. Anyone know?

Greg2600 join:2008-05-20 Belleville, NJ 1 edit	reply to Greg2600 Yeah I've seen those, and have no problem buying those. I'm just wondering if what the person i the FIOS store said was true? If I can get some free from Verizon, I'd rather do that first.

PaulyIzGod join:2008-02-18 Tampa, FL	reply to Greg2600 Yeah I think Verizon is changing it, I think they are changing it to where you can get 1 free remote per box per year.

But as I said, I think they limit your number, although I think I may go the ebay route, just in case. My last dog never touched them, and he was a big lab, and this new dog is a twerp and keeps chewing them! Does In home agent work on a DTA?

Andy from CA Premium join:2008-09-05 Sun City, CA	reply to Greg2600 Do these free remotes come with batteries? I'm not saying people order remotes when the batteries run low, no I'm definitely not saying that.

MeatChicken join:2007-08-15 Paramus, NJ	reply to Greg2600 I appreciate the idea of this service, & hope it doesn't go away due to a few bad apples &/or complainers ... I'm sure VZ knows it doesnt make a dent in their $$, & I'm sure it would not decrease our bills one cent if they removed the program ( Geez, We could all buy new universal remotes for $4.49 w/ free shipping on Amazon, ( I'm sure there's even better deals) & that's retail ... The quantity VZ buys direct must make them very cheap ...

Greg2600 join:2008-05-20 Belleville, NJ	reply to Greg2600 I have no problem with 1 remote per year per box. Whoever allowed one a month is an idiot who should have been fired.

matcarl Premium join:2007-03-09 Franklin Square, NY	I'm just curious. How does that happen? Do you people leave your remotes on the floor? How does dogs and rabbits get on top of everyone's furniture? Are these the same pets that eat the homework too
