This is an OK outbound number *if you have DISH Network*
It is your box dailing out to check/download updates.
For me the box disconnects when you try to make a call when its downloading/checking.

Mine is not an incoming call. It's outgoing. I thought this was from my HD receiver from Dish Network so I disconnected the phone line from it. It's still happening, apparently from my Standard Definition receiver. Why did this become a recent problem? I called the number myself and it's a fax line. Very annoying!

I agree and also noticed that someone else (in all my blog searching) is having problems with anonymous charges for 9.99 in association with this number. It might be a ghost is in the system, hmmmm?

Ya, I have a DNW as well and have noticed the receiver calling out. My question is WHY does the system have to make as many as 10 out bound calls a day or more?

Today I noticed this number as an outgoing call on my phone while it was in progress. My phone was blinking that it was in use. Another report said that it is used by Dish Network to access tv guide programming. That could be true, as I also have Dish Network.

Half right. It is your Dish Network receiver that is making the call. It is not for the EPG. It gets this via satellite. Your box calls out on a regular basis to report any purchased programming. That can be from PPV to programming changes made via the receiver. The box will make the call even if you have made no changes, just to let the servers know.

This number is what DISH's satellite box dials for the satellite box to access its TV guide programming. Remember that your satellite box is connected to your phone line?

Me too - I have Dish ... hmmm

Is there someone who has access to your phone that may want to keep their calls secret? I'm not sure about this particular number, but it may be a number that redirects phone calls to conceal the source.

I was checking my phone call history on my VOIP service and I noticed something strange: this number 800-267-9084 is listed as an outgoing call several times a day. Anyone knows what this is?
