Does anyone know how these Al Jazeera Sports cards work?
By Mystic Meg •
We have just bought an Al jazeera Sports card so we can watch the World cup. We were told we could just put it in the decoder and it would work. Of course it did not work! A message comes up which says 'more information required' When we returned to the shop they said we must ring the number on the back Tel: 489 7111. This number is a road to nowhere and no one answers.....The website on the back is all arabic - so no help for me either.
Did I just get scammed by Al Jazeera....????????????? Or does anyone know how to get this card to work?
ok, i got through the helpline and they activated it for me now
no luck with the help line!!!!!!!!!!!!The number doesn't work. I haven't tried emailing yet. I will try that now
hey Mystice Meg, any luck with the helpline?
@hassan1024 tried that but to no avail, will try calling the helpline number again tomorrow
We have a Humax decoder, but the message 'information missing' comes up and then nothing happens. Shouting at the daft lady in the shop didn't help either......
You may get the 'Service scrambled' message when using the card for the first time, or when you power up the receiver after a long while....just let the channel run for a minute or two (if you haven't already done so) and you should start receiving the transmission.
Same problem as the original poster, anybody have a solution for this? I have a Humax decoder at home, and it the channel names show up, but it says "Service Scarmbled". No repsonse on the telephone number
It will not work on a Show time decorder. Just get a normal Humax or simlar decorder and insert the card in. You should make sure it works at the shop you brought it from before leaving the shop. Well thats what I did.
