@varnull true it does look like a call to CAB would be the way to go.
@smudger they were lets say "closed down" a few months ago, hence why I had a suspicion it was that supplier. Their records were also confiscated.

Interesting, so it mightn't be fleabay, but just the people that bought off this company, whether it was through fleabay or their own site.

Give them the finger.. buy a freeview box and cancel your subscription because of "threats and bullying".. If they get argumentative.. well it doesn't take much to say.. "get a warrant then" and see if they can over hearsay.
BTW.. we DO live in a police state... have done for at least 20 years.

Whatever you say, say nothing when you talk about you know what for if you know who might hear you, you know what youll get. Youll be sent off to you know where for you would not know how long. Maybe I could search through the threads so you dont have to ??

Hi, I received the same letter this morning, i canceled my tv back in feb this year still got BB and telephone though.
I will throw something else into the mix, my son bought one a few months back of fleabay for a mate, the fleabay account uses his ntlworld email address, could it be traced through that?
PS I live in NEast

i@m in the midlands and pay for all channels except movies and sport.
I did buy a box off fleabay about a year ago but it turned out to be a clone and broke down after a couple of months. I replaced it from a different place.
I'm pretty certain that the information they have on me was obtained from the dubious dealer on fleabay

Hi
Can you advise are we safe to keep using these boxes, or should put them in a dark cupboard out of sight till things cool down?
Is it just a VM scare mail or do they really have info on us???

Thats the big IF m8 the letter says you have purchased a box so we have to assume they have details from when and where we purchased a box , i myself blame flea bay and have canceled by flea bay account .

would it be anything to do with us disconnecting our vm boxes to use starview,eurovox etc and not keeping our vm boxes connected.
