they have, just hasnt worked! the thing is, if the box is rechipped it gives the channels again, plus it plays havoc with the legit customers boxes when they do it

Hopefully means the idiot have to pay the price in the end. I hate people who have been stealing TV off NTL and have been speaking to their fraud dept in relation to ebay for some time.

Is this just the digital services, I know someone who is quite proud :erm: of the fact that he has had chipped analogue services for over 3 years.

Dont go over the top mate, expletives are not even used for the horrible little sods that set fire to a girls hair the other day, all he's doing is getting some TV Channels free.

IMO its no different than downloading music, out there someone else is buying albums and i guarantee most people on this site download music regularly and buy the odd album, does that really difffer than paying for the base pack and gettin the rest free?

i dont have a chipped box btw, nor do i encourage it
