I dont know if this is the correct forum for this.
I have the box super usb and also connected on a splitter my original Samsung v*rg*n box, I pay for broadband & phone & get basic tv free.
My question is someone (who is going back to s*y) has offered me their v*rg*n+ box with hdd etc,would it work on my cable connection or are they somehow locked to a particular user.
Thanks for any help.

if they continue to pay the bill, then yes, but if not, it wont work as they will cut it off

isn't that the truth. had a call some time back from a customer rep looking for the box back. they are Virgins property and once the contract is terminated Virgin have every right to request their property back

I didn't want to start a new thread so i hope you don't mind me jumping on this one lads.
My set up is identical to the author of this thread ,but my problem is this. I have my original box upstairs and the other day i lost loads of my channels. My screen was reporting an error 1043 ,if i remember correctly. I contacted base and they said they would sort it from their end and they did , 10 mins later i had all my channels back. A week later and my original box is now jammed on ld20 and despite all the usuall checks ,i am getting nothing . I phoned them again about 15 mins ago and they have booked an engineer for me next week. Should i have any concerns ?? Thanks ....

concerns about what? if you have a subbed box and your paying for it, whats the question? if you have a chipped box, yes i would worry and get it out of sight before an engineer sees it and secondly if your in a N3 area, thats gonna go off pretty soon

on the nagra 3 thread, there is a list of areas gone and areas getting cards, once you rec new cards its usually 2 weeks approx, give or take and chans start vanishing, thats the switch over happening, not sure why your legit box is giving jip, but get the other one out of sight,

Thanks for that mate , i was wondering the other day why i had not received new card , as they have been fairly well advertised but i guessed it was connected to the n3 thing.
Cheers for your thoughts ......
