anyone else lost their channels Showtime etc today, cannot contact Coldsat by phone, they told us they were a legitimate provider and we would not lose the channels on the 19th. - seems like that was wrong.

mmmmmm

Hi macgiblet



unless they have provided new with a new receiver and card - then you were always going to lose the channels as Showtime changed the encryption method - all customers in the areas they are supposed to cover would have had replacements



Coldsat are 'grey-market' importer and rely on the person in the applicable Arab state who got the replacement receiver and card ..



There is NO such thing as a legit provider if one is getting kit from outside the region it is intended for..

Looks like DOPI did not have it sussed as only last week they were claiming. More lies? I hope all the users on this board took your advice and did not pay for a year up front Mr mmmmm.



Sadly the single lady on a limited pension near us did not and has still several months to go as Namek (think that is what she called him) from DOPI seemed like such a nice man.
