Cancelling a VOXI Contract
Hi all, Background: I recently bought a Google Pixel 10 Pro direct from VOXI. The device came a few days ago and the SIM card came today. I have no intention on staying with VOXI, it was just the best deal for the phone - I already have a Lebara contract I'm happy with. The VOXI contract is 30-day rolling. My question: Do…

BT contract commencement
I ordered BT broadband in May 2023 but they made such a mess of things that the line was not installed until about a year later. They are now telling me that I am still in contract because the contract runs from when the line was installed and not from the date the order was placed.One can understand this if there was a…

Returned modem but still being charged by ISP
Hello! On 9th August I ended my 18 month contract with Pop Telecom and I have signed up with Virgin Media. Pop Telecom told me I needed to return my router within 14 days, which I sent recorded delivery the same day.

My Pixel 6 no longer connects to PC via USB.
Rarely-used USB port as it has wireless charging. But latterly the port feels less 'clicky', tho' it still charges via it.However, the option to download files - pics, mainly - from the phone has gone. I've had to send them attached to an email, a right pita.Yes, I tried the swipe-down in order to change what the USB can…

Now TV Sports packages
Can anyone explain why the Sports Saver Bundle in Ireland (which includes both Sky Sports and TNT Sports for around £23 per month) is actually cheaper than the UK 12-Month Saver deal (which only includes Sky Sports at £28 per month)? It seems odd, especially given that Ireland has a higher GDP per capita than the UK. Is…

Talktalk voip
Hi all, I recently upgraded with Talktalk to superfast 150 broadband and VoIP. Maybe I was misinformed but I thought VoIP meant no call charges so I was surprised that my first bill included itemized calls at a cost of £7+ What do people think? If you are wondering why we don't just use WhatsApp, my wife is a luddite and…

LG 60UQ81 TV loses its terrestrial channels on occasion.
Hi.Just as in heading. MIL's new TV, works great, but this is the second time she's turned it on to find her terrestrial channels are not available. She selects 'live' (or whatever it's called), and every channel she chooses returns a blue screen with 'check antenna'.A re-tune makes it work. No idea if her aerial signal is…

Virgin media underhand tactics refusing to honour contract
Yesterday I received my bill with confirmation that my contract is ending and that it will rise from £72.12pm to £191.30pm. I used their message service to speak to them and finally negotiated a deal at 130 in the afternoon for £75pm but I would lose certaint aspects (sports/voicemail/sky cinema/anytime chatter). This…

Virgin V6 or 360?
Intermittenly, I receive emails from Virgin Media urging me to swap my Virgin V6 box for a 360 box. I have no interest in doing this, because I'm perfectly happy with everything my V6 does, plus I know I would lose all my recordings if switching. I'm wondering which box, members on here prefer? Thank you.

I got a new laptop last year which came with a years free Norton but it's now up for renewal , it's only ever connected at home via my Virgin broadband.

Best 55-65" tv for a bright room ?
This could open the flood gates but we have quite a bright living room. We've had a techwood 55" tv for 5 years and I can honestly say its been brilliant. In the dark the colours and definition are still excellent but something has been failing in terms of brightness for about 6 months now and watching dark movies is a no…

Cost of phone calls from a prison
Has anyone any experience of the companies that offer a landline number for use in the prison which diverts to a mobile or device for a family? What should I look for. Some offer a service that means I can pay the whole cost of a landline call . Again has anyone any experience? An example is Phonesavvy , or c2c.

Smartphone-carrying male accessory for when the weather is hot and only have hip pocket for phone
I recently lost my smartphone when out in shirt sleeves and only had a hip pocket to carry my Smartphone in. BTW, I found it eventually in a café I had visited about 30 minutes earlier. If I keep relying on a hip pocket or just holding my phone in my hand everywhere I go this summer, I will surely lose it again with…

Now Tv ...sky sports.
My sky sports has just gone up again to £59.50 p.m with £32 of that paying for a compulsory channel i never watch. I do record programmes on the sky recorder but i think i could live without it. So the current Now tv offer of £26 per month for 6 months for sky sports seems very appealing but I'm wondering if the ads are…
