    you cannot use that box on Sat only on cable you will have to purchase a new box for sat either a Blade for beginners or a dreambox for more advanced users.



    If you put this on your box you will find out alright, your box will defo go off before its time, and you will defo have to sub to them now, i suggest while your box is working flog it off and go Sat side more channels and more of a choice.

    Hi, I haven't been on this forum for a while now I just been reading that after 15 august the SV 7 will turn off, its the true or is false.

    Can somebody explain to me what Starview is doing in making sure the box will continue working.

    The expiry date on my starview 7 is 15 nov so if they disconnect the box from the sever on the 15 aug everybody that has had their box turned off will have to pay a sub to get the box back working again.

    you can be assured your box will be disconnected automatically from there server on that date, you will then have to pay them if you want to continue to view it.

    you now need to pay for your box to work now, your box has expired from server and until you pay them you will have a blank tv

    Which, if you see some of the crap put on and repeated 3 times daily, might not be a bad option.

    I suggest buying a prepay credit card from newsagents (cost a fiver) get one with
    no monthly fee or load fee.

    Put 25 quid on it and pay em, that way if they get raided they don't have your paypal addy. Also you only lose a fiver by getting 6 months instead of 12,
    and can always renew after that

    If you need to register the prepaid card give false info.

    They only accept paypal payments not credit cards, so you have lost on that one

    dont think they will be hunting for individuals, they more interested in catching the main culprits and taking down the main source, in this case the servers, card readers and individuals that are directly associated with that.

    ip address comes from the lan unit so it the same idea as a pc or sat box cablebox anything that has a lan connection.
