    I have a white sky card which i use to subscribe to setanta.

    I got the sky card second hand so sky will have different customer details that i wont know

    The card is not paired to the sky box i have and everytime i put it into the sky box it says card is not autorized.

    If i ring sky will they pair it to the sky box for me even though Im no their customer.

    Or can I connect the sky box to the phone line and do a new installation, will that pair the card?

    I think ringing Sky will be fruitless, as you're not the registered cardholder.

    Assuming it worked before, maybe leave it in your box overnight?

    Otherwise, give Setanta a call, and ask them to sort out an activation signal.

    No harm in trying the phoneline thing, as long as the card is for ROI (callback probably wouldn't work if it's a UK card).

    You were correct sky couldnt do anything for me.

    I have left it ove night fo couple of nights no luck.

    Setanta couldnt do anything either.

    Did call back thing no luck either.

    Got myself second hand box with sky card paired to it hopefully that should solve the problem.
