Anything useful I can do with my old analogue TV?
I understand it will work with a digi-box but I'll never bother to get a box to go with it. I've been told these tv's are just being dumped - nobody on freecycle will want it - charity shops won't (electrical test cost) - no secondhand value now we're digital. Just seems a shame to take it to the tip. Is there…

ITV2 4:3 format?
Just turned over to check what films are on and currently Oceans Twelve is showing in 4:3 format and not widescreen. Now this also happened last night with a relatively new film I can't remember now but is this something to do with the new ITV HD channel/bandwidth issue?

Am I covered by Stat. Rights?
I have bought a DVD/Hard Drive recorder from a large retailer. After I got the thing home and set it up I realised just how poor the features were, that I could get on a 20 quid digibox! I have been back to the retailer, who refused to give me my money back, and told me that I'd have agree any return by manufacturer.…

Anyone else had this call from SKY?
Just had a call from "Sky" CS (alledgedly) He said "Hello is your Sky working OK?" I said "yes it's fine, nice and blue with a few white fluffy clouds no annoying lines from planes passing by" He said " I am from Sky TV, have you got Sky TV?" I said "If you are from Sky TV you will know whether I have a subscription or not…

Sky chasing me for a debt I can't remember
Hi, Hopefully someone can help me here. I have just received a threatening letter from a debt collection agency on behalf of sky telling me that I owe them £40. We had one this time last year also. We haven't been sky customers for well over 3 years and as far as I was concerned we had paid them off so that we could move…

I currently have BT Vision and love the On Demand aspect of this but am increasingly missing Sky1, SciFi and other Sky channels. I think I may have read in another thread that it may be possible to have both Sky+ and keep On Demand…

Brand new sky remotes
I have a fairly old non HD, non sky+ sky box and it's remote control is starting to play up. Some of the buttons are becoming less responsive and even though I have opened it up and scraped away the sticky fluids on the pads it only sorts it out for a few days before it returns to non working state. I'm coming to the…
