Thanks, I might have known you'd know. As they used to say "Page The Oracle" and, Media Boy, you are the Oracle.

Actually, I seem to have seen that page before and fairly recently, so apologies if you posted it for me previously. I'm not sure why my search on the forum and using Google didn't find it, I had all the right keywords used in the title of the post.

Maybe spiderplant could keep that post updated and Media Boy could add a link to it in post one here.

Think you have asked that a few times now and i believe the answer is yes if they rely on a card for use, atleast i hope they go off.

faisalabadi · 27-10-2009, 16:00

Look your dodgy box will go off as the encryption virgin are changing to hasn't been cracked yet.

I hope dodgy boxes go off as I hate thinking im paying Â£80 for 20mb broadband and tv with sports n movies and someone else is getting the tv channels for free

Media Boy UK · 27-10-2009, 16:53

Can we stop going on about ''dodgy boxes'' on this thread.

That's a decent price to be honest it costs my mother Â£67 without ESPN and Â£30 for the internet which is now cable 20MB (more reliable). Sorry about changing the discussion a little lol. Oh by the way that's with SKY not cable.

Q: If the genuine owner of my stolen ATM/Debit Card cancels it and has a new one issued, will I still be able to get CashBack at the till with it?
A: No. The old card is no good anymore.
Q: If I just put my hand over the counter and take the money directly from the till, bypassing the card, will that still work?
A: (Stunned silence)

MB, much respect, but it's not a case of not discussing "dodgy boxes" but more of discouraging such behaviour. Just in the past week I have seen some good management of potential violations of protocol on the DS Forums and I remember someone's reply to one of my posts here being censored as it may have contained a link to a site condoning bypassing encryption on (specifically Nokia) satellite boxes.

Yes, this shouldn't become a huge debate in the thread but should aim to discourage the posting of such questions (repeatedly).

This thread is a discussion of both what's "Coming Soon ..." and what's "Going on Now ..." (and what shouldn't be).

Sorry, I only post announced information, not rumours. So far only analogue switch-offs up to November have been announced.

Instead of posting on the coming soon thread , why dont you try posting here instead as you will find out more info here and leave this thread for the coming soon news that MEDIA BOY posts is read correctly .

So that we do not have to read through all the dribble when there are good threads about this stuff on this site !
