Hi guys,

Been getting a hard drive error on my HD PVR recently, keeps asking me to reboot and returns to the same error. I do not have any insurance on the decoder sadly, but I have read some time back about swapping it out for a repaired unit at a cost of R500 or so? Can someone please advise? Or can my existing unit be repaired? I don't mind waiting a few weeks. TIA

UPDATE:
I had to pay R479 for a swap out but it took me less than half an hour waiting in the ques. Painless exercise.

Swap out at Umhlanga
It will cost R342 (might have increased from April?)
If your serial number is below 80000 (last digits) then the swap should be free, I think its 80000, but query it when you're there

Smurfatefrog is correct, but note that the sub-80000 serial number applies to the PACE HDPVR 4-Tuner model only. Mine was below that, and I swapped it out FoC - but that was at Multichoice centre in Randburg
 
Thanks a mil guys. Much appreciated.
I have the original spec HDPVR, think it was a PACE model and not the new UEC ones. Will check this evening and hopefully get it sorted this weekend.

Any address/contact details for the NUR branch?

Thanks again
 
Yeah they swapped mine out for free too.
