    Default Message on my TV !

    No not going really mad .... this message keeps coming up on my tv channel 5 not sure if on other as I am rarely facing the tv it is for noise only.

    You will soon lose viewing on the channel go to sky.com/replacecard for help.

    I take it this because the card we had from lord knows where is defunct ?

    Hi Val , Just keep pressing "back up". You may get 3 more months out of it yet.
    It is a blue sky freeview card, they have just been replaced by white cards.

    Val you will need a new Sky Free to View card.
    Was the old card in your name @ a UK address, if so you can renew it on-line using "a" UK address and most probably for free.

    If not you can ask the UK address to buy one for you, but remember that it only effects a few channels like 5/Fiver/Sky 3 as the rest are not affected.

    You don't need a card to watch Five, it's free!! Only Fiver and Five USA need a card.

    I've just done the on-line bit for a new white card using a UK address and am waiting-hopefully for the new card! Took the old blue one out to get it's number and now have lost 5-C4+1 and my local BBC .Think I can get them back adding them on-but probably not worth the hassle as for now.

    I have no idea where/how my husband got the card. Channel five at number 105 is showing the message right now.

    Val, if you decide to get a new card, make sure you use a UK address to get one only £20, I had no UK address to use so had to get it via a Company, cost me £150 and the bloody thing is not registering, the Company I bought it from are not being very helpful
