    Had a few problems alright. +3 was gone for a while yesterday I think it was.
    They just posted this on twitter. Can you see the video? I can't open it in work here

    @ajsenglish: There is a change coming. Be ready. #ComingSoon http://t.co/9Iao81cGqM http://t.co/yHqlpapx4B

    Yep, had the same problem. I think the different quality streams werennt synced, so if the quality dropped due to your broadband, you'd jump to another time in the feed.

    The change on 01.01.2014 is the rebranding to beIN Sport, I believe,

    It has been a mess all weekend for me and there was no bottleneck at my end.
    AJS seem to take days to fix problems which is pretty amateurish.

    I wonder will they change their encryption methods to prevent people watching it via overplay when changing to Bein. Only time will tell.

    I believe the new change involves pairing set top boxes to subscriber cards.

    That way if a feed is being used illegally (e.g streaming online), they can identify the account and shut it down.

    I'll miss them ,great package for football over the last few years .

    The online sub carries over to BeIN Sports and working fine thru overplay.net. Quality is fantastic, and apparently all in English, Arabic, French and Spanish.

    Downloaded the new iPhone app from the Egyptian store but can't see where to put it in English!

    Did you see how you can split the screen into 4 so you can have 4 games going at the one time? Unreal. I got a geoblock error last night but it worked fine today so hopefully it'll stay that way.

    Most of their HD channels have no sound at the moment, but as these were generally in Arabic, its not major drama. They are now transmitting about 20 channels of sports :)

    Very pleased so far with the Bein Sports online. It seems to be a better set up than Al Jazeera was. Did not get to see the matches today though were they all in English?

    What a double edged sword the acquisition of the premier league was. now the premier league greed has led to us losing the best value sport package ever.with its removal from hotbird the next 6 months of my subscription are useless

    Maybe stick it on ebay and try and get something back or if you know anyone down in Spain/Italy or that general direction they could probably make use of it with a 1m dish.

    Still a pain in the arse that the package is gone.

    That certainly works.

    The app however is not allowing me to view video but the website is fine

    Is there any way around the 'device limit reached' error when logging into the app? I changed my phone recently and cannot login on it. I don't want to contact them on case they block my account.

    Try to clear your web browser cache and cookies then retry, making sure you are accessing via your VPN.

    I sent them an e-mail and they reset my account. Can login fine on laptop but the app tells me I have no subscription. Think I'll just stick to the laptop a while

    Same here, I would love to resolve the issue but I don't know if it's a good idea to get in touch with them as they might block my account :D.

    Hi, I have an account for offside streams and streamboxtv but i cant view any of the programs when i log in at home on my laptop of iphone. I can log in and view fine from work or when i go 3g on my phone. I am UPC 50mg but i am starting to think that they must be blocking the service. Has anyone encountered something similar?

    Anyone have any experience with the new Humax Bein sport box with the paired card system?
    What is the signal like compared to say a TM5402?
    I noticed over the weekend that my signal on a 1.8m dish has jumped up considerably, at least 5% better on all transponders, I'm hoping this is a good sign!!
    I'm getting 1-15HD all day long now with no break up and on some transponders no problem with rain whereas before this if there was any rain the signal on all the HD transponders would be wiped out, all I would be left with was SD 6,7,8,11 & 12.
