  • Do you need a phone connection to put a new TIVO in service?

    Our TIVO went bad (I probably should just have it repaired). I found a new old DirecTV TIVO new in box. We no longer have a land line phone.

    Can I activate this TIVO with my existing card? What do I need to do?

    We don't buy movies anymore via the phone. We've been without the phone for several years and both TIVOs have been happy with the arrangement.

    You need a new card to add it to your account, the box needs to have a RID number, and yes, you'll need a phone line, although the phone line can be done separately without satellite access, so you could bring it to a friend's house for that part.
    Been here a long time . . .
