re freesat from sky

Xterminator · 2004-11-10 11:10:29

Hi Ive a simple question. Do these new freesat cards have to be activated when you put them in your box, or do they just work via plug and play. If you have to activate them, do you just block caller id, and bluff it, using the uk address the card was sent to? (apologies if its been asked before) X

Jep, you have to call them, then they will activate the card within ca.24h. Just block your number (141), scottish lady needed the version and serial no. of the box, the three channels came up after 45min.
