my dad has 4 eurovox's at mo, but when they go off he has 2 subb'ed VM boxes, if he was to buy another 2 boxes and ring up VM and say "i have brought a V+ box for mulitroom can you send me out a new smart card?" would they a) say yes ok and send it out? b)say no we cant do that?

They might also want to know where you bought the boxes as they are not for sale,not even by Virgin who only offer them as rentals and if you got them from Virgin each one would entail an additional subscription ...
