Has there been a mass switching off of overseas cards?

Mine has gone off today, supplier says hundreds off cards switched off last couple of days. To add insult to injury, only paid the sub on the 4th.

Maybe the new owners of Sky have decided to do a little expat housekeeping.....

Yes, a load of cards went off last week, more this week and more to come apparently. A big cull before the start to the new footie season.
My source says any card that is though to be overseas or being used for "iptv / streaming" or from certain uk based card dealers are being switched off.

My source is telling me that it's peculiar to one dealer.
