The only way they can sort this I'd scrap the sub idea and give every1 who purchased the 6+ 7's something like what they said they would recieve.We all know this won't happen so let them dream on if they think they can get flush charging subs,nobody has any faith in them anymore why don't they wake up.

people will buy the subs coz they dont come to places like this, somone sat there with a dead box his mate says go on line and you can pay for subs and get your channels back, Oh thats great il get me card details ready, Glad i came here 18 months ago and listened to advise and bought the 780........ OH and not had to pay any extras either!!!!!

The sad thing about it is, it takes something like this to prove what has been said along, but no one chose to listen and folk got abused over it.... I have said it previous, I will not, out of principal help anyone with SV issues going forward, they are paying for their Customer supprt now, so let them avail of it, these forums have been about sharing info, helping and advising, even when you got it in the neck for telling it like it is, but now the SV Crew MkII are charging you for the privilege of using their shitty system and providing support, super stuff, SV folk know where to go now as I for one wont be offering any help or advise,
Anything else if I can, I will gladly help

Personally I think they should change the company name to Star-nonview it seems more representative of their service.

No doubt about it people will out of blindness pay the sub,but anyone in the know who bought for use/suppliers to sell on etc etc won't touch them and that was where the money was as it mainly a word of mouth thing.I'm pretty sure in guessing that I'm not alone in saying that they won't be getting any positive recommendations,so SV you better hope that there be alot of niave people out there or it back to salting fries and selling burgers for you boys!

Funny that one even when there was no payments to be made and no account set up, who is fooling who here, do they think people are stupid.
And as mickhab has said as well there will also be no help on Sv from me either, you are now going to pay for this so i suggest people that are avail of their shoddy support, as you can see how long it takes to get emails returned what do you think of that support for a start, and they have not even got it up and running yet what happens when they start getting tons of email, ohhhhh sorry we did not have time to reply "BUT" we had the time to take your money yeee hayyyy wayyyyy to go starviewwwwwwww.

looks like kiddy is choosing and picking his own customers from different forums, from what i read. cos he is targeting those people who have not had a go at him, and is using his own personal paypal account to take payments then activate the boxes via mac adds, once he has payments. and those who have been frustrated and critical of him (rightly so) are not getting any replies from him.
bellow is info from another forum, where a user has made payment via kiddys personal paypal account and got the box working;
"the kiddy sent me his email edited i emailed him with details. and then he give me his paypal and whallah it's working about bloody time"

I feel sorry for those people who have tried to get their money's worth out of a SV box by subscribing to kiddy. I bought a KV780 cheap on a certain web auction site after the DDigital duo went off and was glad I did after reading 3 posts by kiddy saying new firmware was in the offing for that box and now realising it was all guff.So if he were to come and offer an update and a subscription he'd be told thanks but no thanks.

How are you Mickah,
busy I see.It's only my opinion, but I don't expect Duo boxes or cable side of HD-Combo to ever work again. STVU FU**ed off & left punters in the lurch. Their server was shut down. They will re-appear with new box & server if they feel market is there. In the meantime new server has set-up for STVU 6/7 boxes. He is charging £25/6months. That's fair if he runs a stable server. I doubt he will bother with Duo or Combo boxes. Numbers dictate profits & STVU 6/7 is where nos. are.
Hope I'm wrong but new server is there to make money

Hi Eamo, hows things, they dont have access to the other firmware, just the SV6/7 and what is going on here is sheer daylight robbery in my book, SV users have been fecked over for the last year or so with a crap product and service, without even the Irish debacle being brought into this, now they are being asked to pay for it again, money for old rope in my opinion, its being done in the open to, how long VM allow that to go one without taking action is another guess. This is get rid of the stockpile of boxs sitting about, over 17k of em, sell it cheap, sell the boxs, disappear..........
But other than that, I am grand buddy he he he he

If it's picking up these then network should be ok.
exit, go to sly 1, press 1819 on remote and it should say enabled.
leave on that channel for a few minutes and it should come back on

pressing centre button on remote should show connected at bottom of telly if all ok.
If I have an issue I usually reboot the box as well as modem.
PS, I never bother factory resetting and never have had a problem as I hate
re deleting all the garbage.[/quo

Dont think its gonna matter as your going to be paying for this going forward, that firmware will tell you if your box is gone and a renewal is needed or if you have a few weeks or months left, but either way, its get yer wallet out
