    You can pick the subscription up for 1250AED, you just have to go on holiday to Dubai to do this ;)

    Plus circa 2M dish.

    I went at Easter and purchased 2 boxes for friends - 1 in Staffordshire and 1 in Northampton - both UK

    Hope this helps

    Hi

    I got in the main mall near Dubai fountains

    Shop is called Sharaf DG

    There are a few around Dubai

    You may need a Dubai mobile to register it,so it might be best to pick up a SIM card

    Thanks


  • Registered Users Posts: 61 ✭✭DAVE222


    Can I activate the card when I go home or do I need to do it from Dubai . Thanks

    From what my friends told me they were both activated in the UK as follows:

    1 had a friend who lives in Jordan ( i think ) and had a SIM and when you register you get sent a text message with a code you need to enter

    The other one got help via TV Corner and got it activated

    Hope that helps

    You might be lucky with a 1.8M but probably a 2.4M Channel master


  • Registered Users Posts: 61 ✭✭DAVE222


    do all 1.8m dishes do the same job , astrere is a big difference in prices from 350euro to 1250euro.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,559 ✭✭✭abarkie


    Dont buy a prime focus, needs to be a good solid one


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,629 ✭✭✭iba


    There is another thread where people are saying that they can pick up this bird on a 1.1m dish in Dublin

    Not the Bein Sports channels (not a hope!).

    You'll only get around 15-20 channels at that size dish.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,559 ✭✭✭abarkie


    Most people recommend a Inverto Black Ultra - Not sure if that size of dish would affect it though

    Yes that`s the one to go for - certainly upped the signal strength on my dish.

    BeIN sports all channels coming in loud and clear over IPTV.
    HD and English commentary total game changer of a solution.
    For me I think sat is nearly dead, have not used my motor in months.

    How you do this?
