Sky X without a phoneline?
So basically I recently moved home with my Sky+ - I wanted to move my Sky broadband and TV package over to the new place. I told them that my BT line wasn't yet set up in the new place (as it currently has a line with Orange home phone/broadband) - they said it was fine and could still install the tv and they'd call me…

Any TV experts in today ?
My picture quality is fine but its out of alignment with the surround in that when words that should be central are on the screen they are too far over making the sentences vanish if that makes sense ie If ITV is on the screen it is on the right hand side of the screen not in the middle. Have fiddled and poked and fiddled…

SKY Variety Pack
Whilst downgrading SKY from all packs to just Variety, I was astonished just how many channels we watch are included in Variety. I thought the Living and ART channels would be in the "style & culture pack"? Even MTV slips into Variety. Did SKY improve this pack recently, or have I just been blissfully unaware?

Lost ITV, C4,C5 etc on Freeview
Hope somebody can help here. A week or so ago, ITV and C4 started breaking up quite badly. I thought I'd retune the TV to correct this and ended up losing them completely. TV is a LG if that's relevant. Several retune attempts later and still no joy. I know these channels are on MUX2. I've also lost MUXD which isn't too…

Sky turned off our channels, just like that!
Hi Everyone, Just a quick question, we have had sky+ for nearly two weeks and I turned it on today and we can only get the free channels. I think it could be because of us not setting up a direct debit, but can't be sure. When I rang them for my husband to ask to go back to sky after cancelling about 9 months ago, they…
