FTV cards to be replaced.

Got this reply from BBC Digital Information.

We have discussed this matter with the BBC Reception Advice unit who say that new Free to Air card will be available shortly. These cards should be sent out in the next few weeks.

We hope this information is of assistance.

Thank you and best wishes.

This is be costly for the BBC and the FTV consortium.

And Sky seem to be pushing the new cards now with TV ads and all..... looks like we'll know soon enough wheather card swapping can continue......

DAMN YOU BBC:mad: !!!!

I have just sent off for my English FTV card, hopefully it will arrive in time for when my SKY sub card arrives and the gear is all installed.

Would I be getting the new FTV card or will it be the remains of the old FTV cards?

I have a few cards on the way and I have been informed that these are of the new type.

edit: just tidied the quote tags

Good! I didn't want my friend in England to have to send me out 2 FTV cards within a few weeks of each other!

Aye, thats why I'm holding out on getting a FTV solution for my brother, until I know for sure that it still works.

And we offer up the next decade of the rosary....
