You will be given the appropriate address for which to return your equipment. Whether under warranty or not, you will be responsible for the cost of shipping back the defective equipment. For faster service, see the Advance Exchange Program below.

Returned equipment must be packaged properly, using either the original shipping materials or the packaging in which the replacement equipment is shipped. Include a copy of the Bill of Sale. Any items returned without a copy of the Proof of Purchase will be considered out of warranty. Follow the instructions given to you by the Customer Service Representative.

Write the RA number in large, clearly visible characters on the outside of the shipping box that you use to return the equipment. To avoid confusion and misunderstandings, shipments without an RA number clearly visible on the outside of the box will be returned to you at your expense.

DISH Network’s Exchange Programs

DISH Network offers two options if you need to replace your satellite receiver equipment or its accessories.

Advance Exchange Program

The Advance Exchange Program allows you to have replacement equipment shipped immediately to you (depending upon where you live, it could take three to five business days). Along with replacement equipment, you will receive a prepaid shipping label and instructions on how to return the defective equipment. The shipping charge, for receiving replacement equipment and returning the defective equipment, is a one-time fee based on EchoStar's competitive bulk shipping rates (additional charges may apply outside of the continental US). This fee will be charged to your billing account or your valid credit card. If you do not ship the defective equipment to EchoStar within ten days after receiving the replacement, your billing account or credit card will be charged the market price of the replacement. If you return the defective equipment after ten days, you will receive a full refund less an administrative fee.

If your equipment is out of warranty and can be repaired your billing account or credit card will be charged the standard repair fee for the replacement. If damage to the defective equipment is found, which EchoStar in its sole discretion determines has voided the warranty, or makes the equipment unrepairable, billing account or credit card will be charged the market price of the replacement.

Post Receipt Exchange Program

You may choose to ship the equipment to us at your cost. To provide faster service, upon receipt of your equipment you will be shipped a replacement. Your original equipment will not be available for return.

If the defective equipment is covered under this warranty, a replacement will be shipped back to you at no additional cost (additional charges may apply outside the continental US).

If your equipment is not covered under warranty and can be repaired your billing account or credit card will be charged the standard repair fee for the replacement. If damage to the defective equipment is found, which DISH Network in its sole discretion determines has voided the warranty, or makes the equipment unrepairable, your billing account or credit card will be charged the market price of the replacement.

Accessory Warranty

An accessory is any DISH Network branded equipment, displaying the DISH Network logo, excluding the receiver, cables and hookups, and non-mechanical components. A one-year warranty becomes effective upon the activation of the DISH system or date of purchase, if bought separately. A proof of purchase is required to verify the purchase date. If an accessory has an expired warranty, no exchange will be issued. You may purchase replacement accessories from DISH Network or your local retailer.
