RE: sky pin
It tends to prompt you to enter your PIN at the start of the program, but no other time. I have only noticed this on Elite TV, though.

GAME OVER YEEEEAAAAAAAH!

RE: sky pin
Another one here without any form of PIN protection. Most odd, but I suspect it might have something to do with the new $ky cards currently being issued, as another poster already suggested.

RE: sky pin
No pin protection on my sky box either l am still using the old card so it maybe something to do with the new card.

Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me,either. Just leave me alone.

RE: sky pin
Sometimes the pin comes up on these channels but if you switch you sky box off and then back on after a minute or so it should be fine. I have this problem if I have a 900 channel on and the electricity goes off and you switch your box back on it may sometimes have pin protected on it but a simple off and on the the socket switch should do the trick. Hope this will help you all.

RE: sky pin
They seem fine on mine. Go into the age restriction and change the settings on there. This has randomly happened to me a few times before and that's all I had to do to fix it.

you must have a setting on your skybox blocking the channels without a pin. this hasnt happened to me so other than that dont know what's going on. ive had the babechannels on several times and not once have i been asked for a pin. and im not blocked from anything

RE: sky pin

RE: sky pin
it happened at around 5.15 in the morning when i got in from work, so no settings had been changed, and no new sky card yet.

this morning/last night, totally free to roam again, just one of those things............
