Virgin rumour or fact

[conner11794]

The rumour going around is that Virgin can locate the boxes recieving cable channels illegally. Is this true? I thought there was no talk back and this was the only way they could find out. I have seen the page with "you are illegally watching" are they chancing their arm or is the game up

They cannot tell, the boxes do not have talkback. That warning only appears on a non subbed box and is there simply as a scare tactic, they have used it before.

Dont worry about it.

There's also another channel coming soon it's on 808 and it's titled
