RC 73 vs. RC66RX

So, our living room RC 73 remote went Tango Uniform last week and a replacement was ordered from AT&T. Instead of the expected RC 73, we received the RC66RX white universal remote. PS: I did tell the operator that our remotes were RC 73s. Sigh...

Question: Should I just shut up and try to use it or try again for the '73?

AT&T is making me tired, although, in fairness, it could be a supply or staffing problem.

Much obliged.
