How long do you have to cancel sky after agreeing a new deal.
Hi all I need some advice before I contact sky again (better forearmed and all that:-)) Yesterday I was able to after much chatting with sky get a small reduction £92 from £108 per mth, but they are now going to charge me £65 for a callout because I have a faulty dish. I know they are within their rights to charge me but…

Vectone simply ignoring CISAS decision
To cut a long story short, last year I had an issue with Vectone mobile. The company simply ignored all complaints and so eventually I complained to CISAS. CISAS in its decision ordered Vectone to pay compensation by 6th June. Vectone just ignored the CISAS decision - I informed CISAS of Vectone not complying with the…

Leaving Plusnet - charged again
Hi I've been with Plusnet for more than a decade, fearing to leave because everyone else seemed as bad. Finally I'd had enough and switched my landline (with BT until then for the same reasons) and broadband (Plusnet) to the Post Office. Everything went smoothly and my new service was activated on 15th June. I'd been told…

Call blocking companies
My very old mother in law has just had a call from someone saying "they will block nuisance calls" (She is already with the TPS, so they are a nuisance call.) Of course she just talks to them, and then phones us to tell us she has talked to them, but knows nothing about who she has spoken to, what the company is, whether…

Cheapest way to watch Sky's F1 Coverage
After having a pretty good deal on my Sky subscription, it's now expired and I'm currently paying £80 a month for Sky TV, but I only really watch Formula 1, and that works out at £960/year £48 per race! For that money, I could watch the free coverage on Channel 4, and actually go and see a couple of the other races live...…

Is it really sensible to change?
Phone is with BT and internet with Plusnet. The timing of both tariff changes and my LRS give me chance of reorganisation, On examining my last twelve months' phone bills, taking into consideration things outside my phone plan that were charged, I reckon the potential saving is £20 (6%), on the bare scheme £13. AFAIAC,…

Switching to BT TV? Powerline Adaptors, 2nd TV RF output?
I'm thinking of switching to BT TV unless Sky give me a good deal to keep me with them. 1) One potential problem which I may have with BT is that I would need to use powerline adaptors to connect my router to the TV box (too far and unsightly for wiring). The official TV Box set up guide says that for extra channels…
