Mate u want to buy the blue self-activating cards in future. They start counting down the minute you put the card in the receiver.

No waiting around for it to be activated ;)

Stay clear of this company, i ordered a 6 month ART card from this company at a cost of £95, but instead they sent me a 3 month card with the promise the that the card would be reactivated when the 3 months expired, the card expired over 2 weeks ago and they have not reactivated it and have refused to give me a refund for the remaining 3 months subscription

The best thing you can do is find someone Local to buy from, i can get the cards from a shop near Salford about a 10 min drive, that way i get to speak with guys at the counter... its a more personal way..

you have to be careful who you buy from online, there has been some horror stories from numurous suppliers over the years..

maybe we should do a Guide or something were visiters to this forum can recommend Card suppliers?

might save people going through what you've just been through :(

There isn't wod, but only because it has the potential for abuse.
