Shy Channels on sat with dreambox 500s

Buy a card like Digitalb and share it mossy, you'll get everything for free without the constant problems that having only 1 line will give you - I've got 30 odd with my 1 card.

 

When you say problems do you mean freezes etc?

 

Just wanted to let people know. I got a DM500s from dealextreme delivered today. Its a clone obviously but its workin perfectly with Pli image. Great little box. Well worth the price.

Thanks to MICKAH for originally pointing it out to me.

 

Yes, when I first started out I tested two servers & always had freezing when a movie was on etc... Very annoying.

Eventually got a decent viewing card for 200 a year and shared it since, once you have a card to share you'll get requests for it left right and centre, a card you get from a client is called a hop 1 - hop 1 rarely freezes. I've got thirty now & opening everything without hitch.

 

Thanks for the advice

 

No probs Mossy, best of luck with it m8.

 

did you get charged at customs?

 

Nope. Never have with dealextreme. If your worried there is a small add on of 1c to have the package completely unmarked except to state its a gift.

I didnt use it but the options is there at least.

 

even if it were pulled, its low value also

 

Yes but would be liable for VAT @21% if over €21 in value and imported from outside the E.U.

BTW a m8s package was opened and it was marked "gift" so they have copped on to this and he then had to send them the invoice for them to charge him!!

 

I got my dreambox from china last week and no bother with customs,now to get it connected to card sharing server,if I can mange it.

 

from DHL site

Duties and Taxes - Receiving a shipment
Shipments sent from outside the EU may be liable for Customs Duty, Excise Duty and VAT, which DHL is obliged to collect on behalf of the Revenue Commissioners.
Goods are liable to VAT at the same rate as applies to the sale within the State of similar goods - usually 21%.
VAT is calculated on the total of 1) value of the goods for customs purposes, 2) the amount of any other duty or tax applicable, 3) any transport, handling and insurance costs between the place of introduction into the EU and the final destination within the State.
Gifts from one private individual to another up to the value of €45 and commercial shipments up to €23 are usually exempt from VAT & Duty. In all cases if the shipment is a gift then the accompanying proforma invoice should clearly state 'Gift' along with the usual details.
For one off shipments where the value of the goods is less than €250 and the Import Duty due is less than €10 then an exemption from VAT and Duty may also be granted to customers who are VAT registered.
Note that these exemptions do not apply to gifts of alcohol, tobacco or perfume where standard charges apply, even when they are received from another EU country.
For more information on Irish VAT and Duty please visit the 'Customs & Excise' section of the www.revenue.ie web site.

has anyone got a cline for sky please? I've been looking since I got my dreambox and can't find anything,please help someone

 

You will not get anything of the sort on here mate. Certainly not even allowed be talked about. And why would anyone give you that for free anyway!? It's called sharing, not giving. That seems to be the misconception of this method! It's called cardsharing for a reason. Some will say you will get something for free, I don't know about that.

Is there any maxium you can have on a card share?. I was thinking of setting one up some family members, say 4/5 and they will more than likely have 2/3 boxes each.

Also I understand that any DB 500s that I would buy would be a clone but is there any good place to buy one that sells a good one or are they all the same. I see some lads doing them in china for €40/€50.

Thanks

 

Try www.linuxsat.co.uk. Also consider a HD box like the DM800 which they are selling for just over 150 sterling. I've used these guys and they are dependable.

My biggest concern with doing a big investment in this area is not that c/s won't work but i'm sure there will come a time (very soon) when it will no longer be possible to pair card to dreambox. Then your stuffed.
