I believe in the process of the subscribers card swap, anything on the old
card is transferred to the new card, including any charges such as PPV. I
know DTV was that way, but I could be wrong. Cheers

I'm curious, how would they accomplish this? Even if the receiver can
store the data in memory, you could factory reset the receiver before
inserting the new card, couldn't you?

PPV Purchases are stored on the card , and in some cases also stored in the
receivers memory.

If you set the receiver to reset it's memory before you pull the old
smartcard, then pull the smartcard and reboot the receiver with the new
card installed, it should do the trick, no?

You could, but it likely wouldn't make any difference.

On the DTV card swap, rebooting the receiver between inserting the old and new
cards would just cause the procedure to start over. The code to do the swap
was both clever and complex, and worked extremely well, complete with
on-screen prompts guiding you all the way. All data from the old card was
transferred to the new.

No, that will not work. There is a process to exchange the card,you must
follow that process. Rebooting the machine basically is the same as
turning
the receiver off. The process is not complete and you have to start over.

Ahh. So if the code is this smart, why do they require you phone in,
why can't the receiver call in and initiate the process when the user is
ready?

So they can tell you one more time to plug your phone line in or else?

They could display that on the screen, then if it can't connect it would
tell you to phone in, just like the signup process.
