WEBUYANYPHONE.COM -- a warning
THIS IS A WARNING TO PEOPLE WHO ARE LOOKING TO SELL THEIR PHONE OR TABLET ON WEBUYANYPHONE.COM I sent these people an iPhone and an iPad. They received both on Thursday 23rd March. Despite the iPhone being in flawless condition, they claimed it was "good" rather than "excellent" and dropped the offer price. To avoid the…

Sky TV discount ending before contract ends
I recontracted my Sky TV last year in September for 2 years, so it runs to Sept 2026. When checking my upcoming bills, the discounts have been removed from October this year (2025) - it appears that they were only applied for 12 months. I'm not sure if they made a mistake not applying the discount for the full contract…

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…

One of the things I hate about Virgin....
.....When there is a fault and you ring and they send you a link, believing you'll have a smartphone allowing you to open the link which will sort the problem out, but you only have a basic mobile, but they cut you off anyway, and you have to ring again, in the hope you'll speak to a real live human being at some point.

Changing package but retaining a landline
We've been with Virgin Media for 25years+ Current contract is ending soon (we have the broadband / tv / home phone). It's going up of course but I've managed to get them down a bit. Been happy with them as have been generally reliable but now the costs are more than if I changed to sky or similar. But most packages don't…

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…

Skype credit refund
Now that Skype is closing down in May is there a way to get our credit refunded? It’s more “it’s the principle then anything” but I have £11 of Skype credit. Multiply that by all users and Microsoft is going to collect multiples of millions on this. Surely since THEY are closing the service, they have a duty to return our…

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.

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…

Home laptop virus protection via Virgin?
Hi, hope this is the right board to ask this on! 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. Do I need to renew the virus protection or would the broadband be enough? If so are there are any cheaper providers as the…
