      VM have NOT authorised or produced any advert regarding new smartcards, any infomation if they did would be posted on their website and on my VM.
      1. The advert is to long to be authorised by Ofcom (3 min rule).
      2. The quality is poor by any means to VM standards.
      3. No sign of it anywhere on my box.
      4. It includes the old samsung 2100 box - not capable of nag 3 scrambling.
      5. A scam by an employee to scare the market.
      6. The new VM mascott is nowhere to be seen.
      7. Fake website.
      8. Has anybody been posted one?
      9. Sky would be offering major deals to capture the new custom.
      10. When a new encryption does happen it will advertised on all networks not just VM.
      11. The advert is very patronising
      12. A fix will follow any change within weeks (major money and is under wraps).
      13. If so so what, it was good while it lasted.
      14. Youtube is full of expert faked videos.

          Thats the point, a video on youtube and not on the VM network directs you to a site that tells you to come back later? I think the UK's biggest internet provider would have had it up and running by now for testing purposes and the customer services team would have been informed? Whos got the delivery contract? Royal Mail? ha ha. lets wait it could turn out to be scam, but then again I could be wrong.
          Keep calm carry on.

              Well its being streamed on my kryptview, channel 2009

              its not an advert for TV so Ofcom dont even come into it,it will be streamed on a dedicated virgin channel and i would expect a edited version for TV

              its not fake!!

              But there is one important thing missing from that new card........a chip

                But, I and many others can confirm this advert is constantlly looping on a VM channel on the network.

                        CAID 1841 which matches a new Kudelski encryption system is present in Leeds and thats where the adverts are being sent to m8 proof enough for me .
