    Reading all this stuff after getting my Eurovox 5000 PVR up running again yesterday then wondering would I sell on my Kryptview I bought recently only to find the sports etc gone on both. Now realise reading all the comments it is 0130 and I should be asleep, so good night lads and ladies keep up the good work and Jim will fix it.

    My opinion can you see any supplier taking any boxes back, would you if you where supplier, they pay for the carriage to Ireland, and then because the cable company decide to change their encryption, is this the suppliers fault,? all boxes are sold as FTA units, what the customer does with them that's their business, suppliers do not supply firmware or do they condone the use of illegal firmware, that is why they do not take them back if firmware is loaded, as its against the law, and would be leaving themselves wide open to prosecution, and before you say yes, but that is why people buy them you and i both know we all take a chance buying these.

    Suppliers would be out of business, if they started to take back goods because they sell FTA receivers, and people cant get premium channels on them, think of the cost of shipping or getting them back to the Uk. Plus suppliers buy as the market goes they would also be left with a lot of merchandise that they cant shift.

    AND I DONT SPEAK ON BEHALF OF ANY SUPPLIER THIS IS MY OPINION AND I ONLY RECOMMEND SUPPLIERS TO PEOPLE WHAT THEY DO WITH THE INFORMATION IS THEIR BUSINESS

    Some suppliers offer free carriage on their units, and if you bulk buy you get free carriage anyway.

    Any seller of these boxes know what people are buying these for and the disclaimer you mentioned is a joke. I understand where your coming from being a rep of skywonder and looking after there interests but why would people buy these receivers as a free view box if they already had this with there subscription??, the suppliers know whats going on and for those who bought a box recently should get there money back IMO and people that dont should post there experience in here and name and shame those that dont. My opinion as always, if don't like it tough, we should look after the consumer and not the assholes that take advantage of these situations. As said this is my opinion, that doesn't mean its correct.

    lmao here where you get im a rep for any company is a joke, just because people recommend good suppliers, that dont sell clones to people, and are a reputable company, you think they are reps LOL.

    There are lots of people on here that recommend different suppliers, are they reps as well.lol

    I also recommend tailor-made circuits as well am i a rep also for them LOL.

    and as far as naming people on any site, you know yourself people will still buy, the same way they buy from satandcable, when they know they sell clones, even after people telling them.

    People will always go for service, and as you know we never know when a fix will come, could be days, weeks, months, but when they do boxes will be back up and running just like before, and business as usual all will be forgotten, just like the snow that fell last year.

    Thats quiet correct, its not illegal to sell or buy these boxes, or any other boxes, as long as you do not connect it to the cable network, that is when it becomes an issue, even if the box is sold as FTA receiver.

    You would be surprised how much I know about you mate ;) (wont go much further than that lol) as said if someone has bought a box recently they should get a refund, and that is my opinion, I know you wont like it but I say as I think, we wont agree and just like you I am as stubborn and wont shut up, this is MY opinion and as you classically so with the bold you wont change it ;).

    As a normal member you feel the need to defend these suppliers in such a way says it all, you are relentless and your cause in their defense explains everything ;) I dont feel the need to help you dig any further as you seem to be doing that by yourself.

    Enjoy and goodnight, (for now) ;)

    Totally agree, lets hope these "good suppliers" show and stand by those who have made them what they are today rather than taking advantage of people then disappearing when it comes to refunds :).

    If companies like e45's are as straight as they claim then they'll have no problem accepting boxes for refunds up to 7 days after delivery, no questions asked.

    Here's Consumer Direct's advice:

    Goods bought on the internet, over the phone, by mail order or through a TV shopping channel ... give you seven working days after delivery to change your mind and ask for a refund. Be aware though that retailers can make a reasonable charge to cover return shipping costs.

    they also state that box software put on boxes to receive cable tv would cancel yous warranty . . Ive returned a few boxes to the suppliers this morning without any problems so dont see what the problem would be with it they can still sell them over in england

    Any company enforcing the software clause in the warranty would be treating its customers like idiots.

    As new to this Forum have 2 Eurovox one with Hard Drive and think the Eurovox 5000 PVR is a great bit of Kit and better than a DVD.
    I was reduced to 13 channels but still able to record from local channels then bought the Krytview and all channels were available
    this was 4 weeks ago. I knew the possibility was there the channels would go again. Sunday last got the software to upgrade the Eurovox and all channels are back until yesterday the usual Sky channels went again. However, I do not think I would expect the UK supplier to take them back I am happy to carry on as before and wait to see if it can be cracked again.
