I have reinserted the blue sky card in my mates sky box and it worked. It picked up all the channels that i payed for.

Packages are:

All 6 entertainment packages
Sky sports package ( Including HD )
Sky movies package ( Including HD )
Arsenal TV
Chelsea TV
MUTV
ZEE Package

Does anyone no why it is still working?

are you still paying for it?? or is it just picking up the channels but with the info screen saying the channel description?? theres no way of hacking so you must be still paying for it have you checked your bank account???

I am not paying for it. I did nothing to it. We tried it in other boxes and it still id working! I pay for sky & i have sky hd and use the white sky card. I am now using it in my other sky hd box which i dont subscribe with. It works perfectly except it comes up with please insert your new card. It came up a few days ago when watching sky sports so i took the card out but then the subsciption channels still worked. Then i closed the box off and on but the channels ( that i pay for ) had gone. I do that everyday when wanting to watch a subscription channel!

That's strange , Why don't you ring sky up and ask them ?

badboy147 · 06-01-10, 06:24 PM

Hi, is your card still working?

I have been using my old card in a fortec star receiver with a dragon 4.6 supermodule and it has been working perfectly until yesterday.

Im hoping the card is ok ond the problem is with the cam.

Regards
Sammy

I use my blue card in my technomate 6900hd, it stopped working on monday, thought that was it for sure this time, but i inserted it back into my sly box over night and it updated. hopefully i will get a few more months out of it.
