    I have two silver boxes, according to the instructions that I followed explicitly, one of my boxes was rectified and working properly, however the other box has great picture and visual but no, absolutely no audio on any and all channels!!!

    I was advised by service reps to keep the Box on and unplug it, wait for 10 mins and plug it back in. However the same problem exists still!!!!!!!!!!

    I think a technician should visit me and change the box….. Getting fed up!!!!!!!!!!!!

    A customer rep tried to assist me today. Ten channels were activated, and the other 70% were not activated. I’m still awaiting a visit or a call from GREEN DOT TECHNICAL SUPPORT. This is the 6th day of inconvenience.
