Hi

I just moved into the house and connected eurovox to the cable already there. On one of my channels I got an alert saying that the device Im using is illegal and to contact virgin if I have any queries.

Any help and advice please? Should I subscribe to minimum package to avoid any thing?

Regards
K

I have it as well and I do subscribe.

Kays · 01-10-08, 11:47 PM

so should we be concerned?

Kays · 01-10-08, 11:48 PM

should i subscribe to min package?

Jonpc · 01-10-08, 11:52 PM

Why bother if you have a live feed(at the moment)
I can be caught just as easy as you can,if you subscribe you can still be caught.

has anybody been caught and do you know what can be the consequences? sorry if I sound a bit panicky

LOL thats an old trick havent seen that in many years. Has it just appeared tonight?

i guess so, I manually updated my channels and was deleting all duplicate ones and this warning was on one of them, I have deleted that channel anyway.

Is the solution that you subscribe to min package and then have both boxes connected via a splitter?

Not necessary, but always nice to give something back.
