| THEME-X
ceases broadcasting |
|
Due to financial difficulties Theme-X has
unfortunately ceased transmitting as of 04.07.10. and can
longer finance the cost of transmitting the channels. We don't
want you to miss your programming so have negotiated with
the distributors of Elite to offer you a discounted replacement
card even if you did not buy your Theme X TV card from us!
We are very sorry that you have lost out in
both money and viewing time but unfortunately we are not in
control of satellite transmissions and cannot be held responsible
if a broadcaster ceases its broadcast/transmission and / or
goes bust. All cards were sold in good faith, and activation
is evidence of this. We have acted merely as "agents"
for the broadcaster who are overseas and we're not affiliated
with them in any way. Our "contract" was to sell
a satellite viewing card, we cannot be responsible for programmes.

View / 12 Plus service ceases, replacement announced |
|
As of 14.30 GMT on December 3rd, Sex View
ceased broadcasting after 7 years, and will be re-launched
as SV Theme X TV from the 10th December.
The new package will have 8 not 12 channels,
broadcasting 6 films a day per channel, 4 of which will be
new releases.
This follows several months of speculation
as the old Sex View channels video quality had deteriorated
over the past couple of months with more films being repeated.
SV Theme X TV promises less repeats, newer
films and a wider range of content. The channels will be known
as: Theme X – Hardcore, Theme X – Interracial,
Theme X – Groups, Theme X – 18, Theme X –
Fetish, Theme X – Catch, Theme X – Peep and Theme
X – Trans.
SV Theme X TV will honour all subscription
cards all ready bought for the length of the remaining subscription.
We are sorry for any problems this change-over
causes. [05/12/09]

If your dish is fixed on Hotbird then you
will be required to either re-align your dish to Eurobird

allow continued access to Hotbird as well as allowing reception
of Eurobird 9. Upgrading your dish to receive Hotbird and
Eurobird is a low cost procedure and one we recommend. A Monoblock
LNB is simply bolted on to your dish and does not require
further cables.
