It is quite rare situation and we are sure that it is not an Infinity-Box fault, this smart-card can not be replaced for free !
Click here to read about one of possible damage reason
If you have any addon software activated (f.e. PinFinder, Language Editor, Content Extractor etc.) for your damaged Infinity-Box smart-card and if you have another Infinity-Box we can move addon activation to your other Infinity-Box (move activation from one smart-card to another smart-card).
