No ITV,Channel 4 on FTV Card

    Hello All,

    I got my hands on a FTV card that was married with a different box. When I put the card into my own box I thought that I would receive ITV,Channel 4 and Channel 5 no problem. I can only get Channel 5. On ITV and Channel 4 there's a banner that comes up saying to ring a UK number to have the card upgraded or something. Does anybody know what I should do here? What are my options to get the channels back?

    Thanks in advance,
    Mark.

    Leave the card in.
    These channels will activate in about 2 hours.

    The commercial channels (ie ITV, C4, C5) are supposed to work on an unmarried card. The BBC channels will only work on a married card.

    That's how it's supposed to be anyway...
