Re: Virgin TV, Phone, Broadband
Mobile contract is excellent - I know it's slightly different from the main subject, but same company. They use EE, and sim only for just £12 per month I get unlimited calls, texts and data on a loyalty deal. Brilliant!Comment

Re: Virgin TV, Phone, Broadband
I don't have a telly, or broadband, or narrowband.
I can't afford a 'puter.
& as for them adenoid 'phones, don't get me started!
I do, however, have a pot & a window.

Re: Virgin TV, Phone, Broadband
Also "back of beyond" Have BT, phone via copper wire had lots of problems with speed when I finally got Wi fi, from advice here got in touch with CEO, almost instant result!
Got new hub, and speed went from 0.2 to about 2.0!
Still varies a bit but cannot see us getting fibre optic any time soon.
TV is Freeview box, but even that needs an inline booster!Never give up, Never surrender.Comment

I don't think I can get anything other than Sky where I live, nothing that requires an underground cable. Sky TV has worked well most of the time except some time in May/June when I started losing channels.
I rang Sky and they said it could be the box. I said I had it since 2007, they said it was VERY LIKELY to be the box after all those years, so they sent a new HD box free as long as I agreed to pay an extra £5/month, which I thought was a fair deal compared to the alternative of paying £60 just for a callout, and the engineer was likely to say I needed a new box anyway.
Their customer service has always been fairly good and there haven't been many issues in 15 years. No idea how many Freeview channels I'd get where I live, years ago I heard you could cancel your Sky subscription once your contract period was over and keep the box and dish and use it to watch Freeview channels, I went to someone's house in SE London and it seemed to work fine at the time. :noidea:
