Stealing a car is a serious criminal offence. Stealing cable TV is not. Just look at TraxData's story about going to a rough street to disconnect as many as 24 offenders. He didn't go with search warrants and the police, because it's not worth it, unless trying to catch people selling the equipment or services associated with piracy. I think there was even a thread in this very forum some time ago about someone who had phoned his cable company to report a neighbour, and was told they weren't interested,

I Believe that would have been me. I did get it sorted out but not with VM's help. tbh there are plenty of people around here with cloned modems still up and running i simply do not care anymore. It is a long and painful process to report anyone and quite frankly a complete waste of time VM simply will not do anything about this. Still winds me up that i have to pay, or should i say choose to pay for my services, while they are getting away scot free but i guess thats the way it is going to be.
