Re: Virgin media possibly getting serious on dodgy boxes?
Yeh they are getting serious on dodgy boxes.
there will be letters sent to people who have been caught with them, also there will be a message that appears on there tv that says, that it is an unathorised box and to cease using it ! :) |
Re: Virgin media possibly getting serious on dodgy boxes?
They have been saying this since time began and its still hasnt done much good
still just as much as ever going on, ****es you off when you find information from such sites and you see them trading mac codes on YOUR ubr. |

The message is a waste of time, they know they are getting goods for free, so seeing a message on a channel wont mean anything to them.. Just delete the channel its been attached to, & move on.. |

To make a major change in the coding, they would have to replace the boxes, so the only coding changes likely are those which can be done by a firmware update or card reprogramming.

Premiere currently use Nagra albeit version 2 and I suspect their receivers will be more flexible than Virgin's ageing range but you never know. |
Re: Virgin media possibly getting serious on dodgy boxes?
What about dodgy modems then ? I find it very annoying that people are stealing bandwidth and forcing the paying users to have such a poor service in some parts !
Would rather here their doing something about that TBH. |
Re: Virgin media possibly getting serious on dodgy boxes?
They don't do anything when you phone up anyway, I informed VM that a person was using 3 chipped STB's, they got back to me and said they are on the basic package and no information was coming back off the box to suggest otherwise. I have spoken to some installers over the last few months and they have said, as long as you are signed up to the basic package there's no way they can trace you, one installer said that there were people out there who were running chipped boxes and had been for the last 5 or so years.

It was on of the Mods on here who ran the test Maggie, I gave him the house number and post code. Here's one reply I got back. Hi Nidge, ntl have got back to me and have told me that the customer is paying for all three services and has been doing for the last 3 years. Do the people you know about have an additional device that ntl don't know about? Thanks, |
