Decided to bite the bullet and order a FTV card. Interesting to note that in the terms and conditions, "From time to time the card may need to be replaced for security reasons, sky will issue a free replacement when needed for 3 years after the date of activation, after that date you may need to purchase a new card" Interesting to note that 2 other FTV cards I have had of ebay have not had a problem, so it seams that if you do manage to get a cheep card make sure the parental controls have been turned off or you know the pin

Once you get knwn as a sat nut its amazing how much unwanted kit you can aquire for free - much of it still with sky cards in it

I got given a scrapper amstrad box a while back - its card went into my dreambox and it works perfectly as a ftv card

Well done

How much did you pay for the annoying card?

madrat · 26-11-07, 01:10 AM

that is now to be known as the incident never to be mentioned

and it cost me £10.

Robbo · 26-11-07, 01:43 AM

OOPs sorry but

Oh well, swings and roundabouts and all that, a new box unsubbed would have cost far more than that.

I would be tempted still to send it back for a refund, the seller should have known the pin.

Seriously if anyone want a FTV card for research purposes or any other reason I will have one going for just postage in a few days.
