TV Email

I have Digital with Ntl and I want to use the email option.. but I don't know the PIN and I can't find a pin for it on the paperwork. Is there a standard PIN or should I ring CS?

My advice would be to ring CS, because they can either tell you the defult code or give you instructions to set a new one.

Ring to c/s is best... the installers sometimes write then on the work order that you got originally, but different people set them to different things when they have them installed. One of my boxes was set to 5555 (easy to remember), one was 2003 (year it was installed) and the other one the installer asked me what i would like for a pin number.

Trying things probably won't help much, so give c/s a quick ring and they can tell you... they'll be there until 8pm

thought it might somehow

Marge · 20-05-2004, 21:13

Dead easy to unlock though

mcauslene · 21-05-2004, 00:43

Mine was set to 1234 by default, and it still is 1234

i don't think you can change your TV-Email pin on your stb. only the stb pin for parental controls and TVOD.
i think your 1234 pin will stay the same...forever!!

mine was given to me, when i first subscribed in a letter, (from C&W in 2000).

Yeah and you can change the email address as well if you want to

Some of the name requests can be a bit, strange

Well the number of people who think they are supernatural etc, something like "iamvladthevampireslayer" or "witchypooevilwitch". However I think my favourite password ever went something like "bigtitties44dd"
