New Virgin Media Viewing Cards

Anyone had these sent out yet? Or know when they will be sent to customers in Scotland?


Thanks

I received mine a couple of weeks ago (Crawley). A few days before they turned up I had a message on the TV screen telling me that their arrival was imminent.

They're changing the encryption to Nagra 3,which,as stated above will make it harder to clone the cards & chip boxes.
Good on VM! About bl**dy time!

Lets hope they stop continually putting prices up now. They won't have the excuse of losing revenue to pirates to fall back on anymore. Mind you I don't think many of those who used chipped boxes will begin to pay for the service now as Virginmedia hope. I think they will just switch to freeview and leave it at that.
