    You would need to ring vm and tell them you have aquired a new box. They will match the card to that box on your line. Providing you have a subscription with them that is. If you dont have a sub then its useless.

        THE TRUTH
        The Hillsborough Independent Panel. 12/09/12

        Today's report is black and white.The Liverpool fans were not the cause of the disaster.
        The panel has quite simply found 'no evidence' in support of allegations of 'exceptional levels of drunkenness, ticketlessness or violence among Liverpool fans' and 'no evidence that fans had conspired to arrive late at the stadium' and 'no evidence that they stole from the dead and dying'.

          What are the v boxes that use cs then? Are they a totally different box?

              cgscott, i have a vm sub so if i get a box off ebay with a card can i do what you said above and use the ebay one in me spare room or would i have to pay them for multi room to get an extra card???

                Extra card mate. Each gets paired to the boxes. Theres no other way round it. Although you will save on installation for another box you will have to pay the fee for multiroom. Extra ?10.

                probably better to just try haggle them for free install on another box and pay the multiroom charge.
