.Error 7400 is usually because the box has either been deactivated (not used for around 30 days)  or is a new box that hasn't been activated yet.

It sounds like you need to call 0800 953 9500 to re-activate the box. You will need the box serial number, and your account number and area code.

Hi @terry27,

 

Many thanks for your recent post! Sorry to hear that your second box had been de-activated. 

Just to confirm, how did you sign up for the new deal - was this via your online account?

 

Kind regards,
