I've spent some time reviewing existing threads regarding the new pairing algorithm.
I'd cancelled my account last year and have just re-signed following a promotional offer. I've yet to get the card, but my goal is to use it in my VU+ Duo - I'm not really interested in CS.
I understand the trick using an older Thomson box, but I'm not sure that's going to wash when they're sending me a new card and box (surely it will look v.suspicious if I try to activate on an old box with a brand new account).
I do have my old SD ***+ box, which sounds like another option (albeit barring the HD channels I'd hoped to start using).
I'll be committed to 12 months if I activate the card, so I'm wondering whether to just bin the idea and cancel now...
Cheers,
Can
