I assume you would just relodge an application with same person and unit but different address.
If you wanted to be sure, just call.
Has anyone tried to re register an already appoved VAST STB to another person at another address?
I am very well aware that once its "ON" thats it no matter whose it is or where it is but I am considering changing one over if the circumstances permit.
Then again, can a Leyland Bros we can go off into the wide Blue Yonder ???

I am sure down the track this will happen once all the dust settles and VAST becomes the Norm.
Now the question is who to ring, Digitalready/Mystitch or VAST and see who says what.
But thats for another day................

Some points to be aware of below. Now can they get any location amendments right???? I bet it will be problematic.
8.7. The Scheme Administrator may withdraw access to the VAST Services from a person in a Category B reception area or in a declared service-deficient area, if the person:
8.7.1. has not notified the Scheme Administrator of a change of Declared Location in compliance with clause 8.6; and
8.7.2. whose authorised VAST Service receiving equipment is found to be located other than at the Declared Location advised in the person’s application for access to the VAST Service or in any subsequent amendment to the application lodged by or on behalf of the person and approved by the Scheme Administrator.

As Charlie Drake sang in 'My Boomerarang Wont come Back', 'First you have to THROW it' means for any Rule or Regulation to be applied, they have to be aware that something is going on for it to be applied.
Basicaly no one ever breaks any Law untill their caught doing it...............
So unless someone makes a 'Dog's Dinner' of an application or is reported by another, I sincerly doubt VAST or anyone else is going to 'Police' the system as that would require staff and cost money which all are lothe to do.

Don't forget the unscrupulous WA satellite dealer who was selling VAST decoders 'pre-activated'.
Suddenly, there were dozens of people without reception because access had been withdrawn after some unknowing person tried to change details on a 'dodgy' application, bringing it to the attention of VAST.
Until now, every time I authirized a card for VAST, ABC-SBS came on straight away and most of the time the commercial channels too. Now, I try to get a system up and running for 2 days and no hit on the card. Is anyone has problem with re-hitting or authorizing VAST from last night? Thanx, it's me

I also think If you sell your vast STB to another person,
& they transfer it into their name, & address....
activation will then depend on if the New owner qualifies for Vast Commercial channels or not, at the new address.

Correct,
It's the address which is the qualifying factor, which may also change VAST authorisation at a future time if terrestrial signals become available at that address. eg: new terrestrial digital translators are installed to cover the area, therefore commercial channels on VAST may be removed.
Beerforlife, I suggest you get off whatever you are on and stay out of this thread if you can't post something on topic and sensible.
What I choose to spend my money on is my business, not yours or anyone elses. If you think there isn't a flourishing trade in out of area vast/foxtel/austar boxes then you are naive indeed, it's all about the football....
MTV, yes , my point was you can indeed re-register a previously registered decoder/card if you have legit details.
The second part of my post was to let 'it's me' know that activations are working today and it might pay to try again.....

That is only relevant if the new address qualifies.
Did I seek your opinion? I'll rattle the chain when I need it!
The main point here is that there are those selling Boxes and Cards to those that would not otherwise qualify and are left in the lurch when they update their Box and Card to their legitimate location.
I'll spell it out for the gullible, that's almost $300 worth of door stoppers.
"MTV"?, are you condoning that?
Beer4life your waffle is ruining an otherwise informative thread.
As usual you have misread something and are trying to turn nothing in to something. And as usual, people are giving you the deserved response.
1. Re read the entire thread.
2. Work out where you went wrong
3. Sit in the naughty corner until someone comes and gets you.
Otherwise I will remove you from the thread.
Sorry to have stirred the pot but my question was basicaly for the future when for any number of reasons any model VAST stb may be sold/moved/ from its origonal owner or location and that it was going to an AUTHORISED area.
I am sure that one day someone will want to upgrade to a PVR or even the 'NEW' twin Tuner PVR STB, if it EVER becomes available (dont laugh) and wants to sell their old non PVR stb.
It may happen one day when local installers obtain Pre-Owned STB's and on sell them to thier customers.

It's all valid, Gordon.
People are selling/disposing of/upgrading VAST boxes now and it's good to hear those transitions of ownership/activation are going through OK.
