[mini]

sorry didnt know were to post.....

1st they remove discount voucher without warninig.
2nd placed order and was told 2 days most (using ups)
3rd the guy doesn't want to respond to my mails by hotmail or msn.

Do not recomend for sales or after sales queries.
would ahve been better of ordering from china as uou know what your expecting.

Sorry DK did'nt want to insult your sponser but he left me nno choice.

Ihave tried to talk to the person without luck, here are what I have just asked on msn>>>>

Its the last time I will be doing buisness with yourself and recomending that nobody does either...............

[scousemicky]

Iv'e found them to be very good with after sales support.

2 msn messages at 1am!! Both of them insulting!!!

Hmmm! I don't think your gunna be very popular here!

[ianmac]

Sounds like the sort of problem I had with them.

Received my goods damaged + wrong parts, I ordered a cable box, hard drive & a spare plugin Sat tuner.
Everything was in bits when it got to me,
hard drive/tuner + fixing kit, all loose inside the dreambox's cover which had broken off components from the dreambox motherboard,
the only response I got from emails are the automated reply's stating "thanx we will get back to you".
Since I posted + PM'd Linuxsat on here I have noticed that Linuxsat or someone has removed the Sponsorship from DK completely.

I can't even find the PM that I sen him, is Linuxsat even still a member on here?

Ian

P.S. Hope you get yours sorted out mini...

[scousemicky]

Hmm. Did you get it sorted Ian?

I bought a DM600 of him in September.

The NIC on it was faulty. He was very helpful on MSN. I sent him the motherboard back but the one he replaced it with had faulty graphics (well picture was all fuzzy via both scart & composite.

At that stage he actually asked me if I wanted to go to his house to try some other boards! .

Anyway, he ended up sending me a 3rd board with a promise of replacing the DM600 altogether if that board didnt work.

The board did and does work ok.

I do have a couple of problems with it..

1. If i leave it in standby (say overnight) for a while it sometimes freezes.

2. When I stop a recording it just seems to pause it. Also, when I select 'file' mode it automatically plays the last recording watched.

i havent got round to looking into these niggles, infact i'll post here about them and also ask him.

2 upset people plus the sponsorship removal is interesting though!

Anyone else got opinions about Linuxsat? Especially Admin/Mods.

I'm after 2 more boxes. Iv'e got a DM600 and a Starview 2 which has been faultless for nearly 3 years. The new ones have cable and sat tuners so the swap to N3 is gunna happen soon.

I find the fonts and EPG on the DM are terrible to view no matter how you play around with them.

The EPG and preview on the Starview is a big plus but no network is a big minus.

Anyway, i'm off or i'll be here all day!!! lmao

Yes m8,

I got it sorted in the end, I was going to send the whole lot back & claim from my (credit card insurance), coz I was furious that they posted the goods without any protection..

But eventually managed a 1 to 1 with a guy called Naveed, & he talked me into replacing a few parts, he said it was a bit difficult to arrange as he was out of the country, but we got there in the end..

It's funny coz I have just replied to your problem about your "freezing" box in another thread, seems we are following each other around but did not know till now that you have playing with EPG...

Yes I would like to know what happened to the sponsorship removal thing..

he is only being honest thats what we like and the company may apprieciate. if they dont know they cant fix it

[mini]

not a popularity contest, just honesty.
I would have prefered if the guy had told me the truth and said it would take a week or two. then I would have ordered drom china or wherever, saving some cash while i'm at it. Now the person i ordered for is having a go at me thinking i stiffed him.

[smoggie]

they have a 600c on their site for ?199 wonder if its genuine. If they are going to be selling 500c clones they need to be around ?75 delivered.

The dreambox's on the web site are genuine boxes. if i was going to do clones i would do for ?70 deliverd for a dresmbox 500.

[fermec]

It has been very rare I have heard bad reports about Linuxsat, It was the good reports that made me get my DVB600 from him it was delivered in 2 days and have never had a problem with it.

I would definitely use Linuxsat again.
