Mine hasn't gone off. Do you leave it on a digitalb channel to update?

If you have left the receiver on another satellite/channel you may have missed the update signals. Put the receiver on one of the digitalb channels and it should recover ok.

Left it on all last night tuned to Digi+. Still down unfortunately.

Going to contact the company i purchased it off this morning. If they are no help i will have to put a claim in through PayPal. >

I might even name and shame them

Just spoken to the supplier and he tells me it is activated, although he thinks i may have missed the card update which sets the cards expiry date

He has got DigitAlb to resend the card activation sequence so its just a case of wait and see

Sounds like your supplier is at least doing something for you. Fingers crossed.

nanochickin · 04-01-07, 01:04 PM

Still hasn't come back on yet.

Will give it until 3pm and then will get back on to him. >

If its not back on by this evening i'll be starting a claim with PayPal to get my money back

The guy has kept to his word and its now come back on

what day roughly do the cards update as i have a motorised dish and often leave it on other sats as i'm looking to get a card for the movies and discovery channel if there any good, so i make sure its left on 16east

nanochickin · 03-03-07, 07:19 PM

No idea mate. :?

I'm guessing its on the last day of every month for DigitAlb as thats when the card says the subscription finishes,

I usually leave it on overnight tuned into Digi+ every 3 or 4 days just to be on the safe side

Mine does not seem to update until about the 5th of every month but even though it shows a valid date up to the end of the previous month it still keep working.
