Returning a Bell Satellite dish

[Murna]

I have recently discontinued my Bell Internet service and have received the packing slip to return the modem and receiver. I was told that I couldn't use that to return the satellite dish which we have removed from the roof - is that correct? If so, how do I return the satellite dish?

There is no need to return the Satellite Dish. It can be left in place for future owners. The return packing slip is intended for the modem & receiver equipment. Satellite TV dishes are normally left in place. They can also be recycled through Bell-supported provincial recycling programs.

Hi can I tell the roofer to remove the satalite dish on my roof since we have BELL FIBE now is it needed or I can remove it I have home phone internet and fibe tv now ?

No need to keep the dish once you have moved up to Fibe. You can scrap it, give it away, etc .

It is your to do as you wish.

Enjoy you new Bell Fibe services.

Take care.

Do I return the satellite dish by Canada post with the rest of the indoor equipment?

[WelshTerrier]

You do not need to return the Bell Satellite Dish. Only the receiver, power supply, remote, etc. need to be returned. You can leave the dish in place or recycle it locally.

Take care.

Thanks,

If you are not a Bell subscriber, the dish is yours. Bell doesn’t own the dish.

Good Day.

Do you have an active Bell Satellite TV Service? If you no longer have an account or the dish has been left or abandoned by a previous owner, you can choose to leave it in place or choose to remove it. The satellite dish was provided by Bell as part of the original satellite tv service install. If it is no longer required, you can dispose of it as you see fit.

There is no requirement for you to return this to Bell.

Take care.

No we don’t have an active satellite tv with Bell, used to. Now that we’ve been using Fibe TV for many years and no longer use the satellite dish, I want to have it removed since it’s a bit of an eye sore. Just looking for services or recommendation who who I could get to get this removed and have the wholes patched. Thanks.

You can remove the dish yourself and at your convenience. Bell does not provide that service, to my knowledge.

I wish i could help you, but I can not. This is a peer-to-peer community forum. It is a place for you to ask questions, find answers and share your thoughts & solutions with other community members such as your self.

Bell does not offer a satellite dish removal service.. Once the service is disconnected it remains the property of the home owner to decide on whether they wish to leave in place, sell, donate, or remove & dispose of the dish.

As a community we are just not in a position to recommmend one company or an individual over another to assist in removing this for you.

I can only suggest that you reach out to someone  from within your community and or advertise the dish & removal online. E.g. Kijiji, Marketplace, etc.

Take care.

Thank you for your recommendation and information, much appreciated.

When you switch satellite tv to fibe tv does Bell remove the satellite dish and associated cabling or is that my responsibility?

Thanks
