PattayaParent Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 The signal just went off at 23:00, has anybody else had the same problem? can't get through to TrueVisions, thjir lines seem, to be jammed, I guess by others asking about this problem? The sky is falling!! OK just a spoof, Although I'm sure there will be many out there that don't know what's happening now. Please report your experiences in the morning with True and Dreambox receptions as I will be at work and won't be able to check either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glanville63 Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Yes I was watching the final holes of golf from Scotland just heading for a play-off and wham, they turned it off to improve the service. What a bunch of plonkers. Fortunately I could get BBC on WIZIWIG so was able to watch the play-off. More importanly, how do we start a new forum or topic these days. I can't find a tab called Start New Forum like in the old days. Can someone help me please as I haven't started a new forum for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubba Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Amazing. No advance notification, no scroll at the bottom of the screen earlier today, nothing. Shortly before my screen went blank, Truevisions cut the programming and ran a page for a few minutes saying they would be off until 9:00 am tomorrow morning. That's it...I'm tossing their grossly overpriced service and going to internet TV. And by the way, do we get a refund for the loss of service?

KHR1010 Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 (edited) They have been warning of this for the past month or more. There has been a banner at the bottom of the screen on most channels stating that the entire True cable service would be down from Sunday July 15 at 2300 until Monday July 16 at 0900. They also sent me an SMS on my mobile last week which I attached below FYI. "URGENT UPDATE: On the evening of Sunday 15 July, we will upgrade our broadcast technology; which includes the addition of new HD channels. From 23:00 on Sunday 15th until the following morning, you will not be able to receive any transmission on any channels. All services will be fully functional by 09:00 on Monday 16 July. For more information, call 0-2725-2525 press1 then press 4. Sent from my mobile device" Edited July 15, 2012 by KHR1010 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glanville63 Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 With regard to Starting New Topic, there is nothing at the top of my screen about Posts. I'm damned if I can find anything that leads me into a New Topic. I've been searching high and low for a while now. The old ThaiVisa used to be so user friendly ...............................

loong Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 I have seen no banners and had no notification of this at all. Just found that there was no signal this am.

KunMatt Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 (edited) I've just got a standard SD box. From the headlines of topics on here I knew that something was going to change with True but wasn't sure if we would lose everything or need to upgrade to a HD box, tbh I didn't care too much either way to find out any more info. Turned it on this morning and it updated the firmware (said dyup in the front display), all channels are still on plus a few more new ones but the order is completely different. Looks like all the free channels and Knowledge package are first then all premium channels and HD are higher in the list.

No, I was not following the other thread about this. Bet there were some fidgety, jetlagged arrivals in hotels last night with nothing to watch on the telly. And a lot of busy receptionists taking late night calls from guests asking why their TV didn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried that but still getting error 16 as well as message stating your set top box is starting up but 20 minutes later still nothing true phone lines busy cannot get thru !!!!

That's it...I'm tossing their grossly overpriced service and going to internet TV. And by the way, do we get a refund for the loss of service? Lets see.. Scrolling banners. SMS's to the true registered cellphone number. Multiple calls from service reps Full page adverts in the truevisions magazine Full page waring on the landing page for the true website. Not sure what else they could have done ?? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayned Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 All channels back on including HD channels even though I'm not paying for them. Some of the TV Guide info is incorrect, not matching what is playing or "No information". All Radio/music channels inoperative with A message "This service is blocked" displayed. Tried power reset twice with no change. I'll try again later, maybe they're working on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
