Used Premiere with "11:Evaluation" status?

I purchased a used Premiere off of Ebay and the seller claimed that it had lifetime service.

I hooked it up and went through guided setup and on the System Information page, it says...

TiVo Service Account Status: 11:Evaluation

I asked the seller to call TiVo and have the unit (and lifetime service) transferred to my account but I haven't called TiVo yet to complete the transfer.

Is this some kind of transitional service level until it is officially moved to my account?

I'm planning to call TiVo tomorrow to see what they have to say, but I figured someone here has probably seen this account status before and knows what it means.
