Default Is it the END of free viewing on cable boxes ?

Hi, I have StarView 4 with ver 1.12. Suddenly in the afternoon all the paid channels have disappeared except ss1, 2, 3 and 4 plus freeview channels. I live in West London (near Heathrow) and would like to know if anyone else have/ has the same problem if living nearby my area. Thanks

Once Nagra 3 is fully rolled out to your area yes its the end of freeloading - you either pay the monthly fees for your desired services or you do without. (Or you join Sky UK of course!)

Our channels went off a few days ago and no matter what i try i cant get them back

I'm not even getting a "updating data" massage when i exit to SS1 now after a reset, rescan, emu on ect and i have even tried it without a splitter and it still doesn't work

Does anyone have any ideas if this is something that can be fixed or am i now in a area (Derby) where its not possible any more

Actually scrap that question because after reading the forums a bit more i saw that if cards are being given out then it wont be to long before N3 arrives and our cards came a week ago
