TV License for granny annex
Our family house has two entrances, we ourselves call it number eg 60A. Now it's not officially separate, it's not listed on anything as a separate dwelling. It has no separate gas, electric water etc. It's sort of like a granny annex. It's a semi, the garage has a room in it. For postal letters we just gave it a…

Opening Voicenote.Number/ Name not recognised
I am computer illiterate. Technology has passed me by. I have just received a voice note from someone I do not recognise, with a number and name I don't recognise. Am I safe to open up the voice note to see what it's about or is it likely to have some sort of virus/ malware attached? Or be fishing for something?

We are used to changing internet/phone providers, including to and from Plusnet, and the landline number has always been the same. This time we changed from another provider to Plusnet…

Has anyone had issues with a mobile phone repair company called ELECTRONIC PARTNERS?

Virgin Media in the wrong
So I moved house a few years ago, refused to pay the remainder of my VM contract as THEY could not supply their service in my new property. I think they are now being investigated by OFCOM regarding this practice. Anyway, I've got on to CISAS about them and Virgin have agreed to pay me £300. I've chased and chased this…

The details stated that although you could sign up online, you had to phone to cancel within 30 days or it's 12 month minimum subscription at £25 a month. I noted down the date…

Aerialforce- I have been ripped off.
Recently moved into another property and I could not get my TV to work when plugging in to the aerial socket. Submitted my details to Aerialforce and received a phone call before 7am the next day. What decent company phones you at that rediculous time. I should have stewed clear of them them because of this but I told them…

I notice Virgin Media currently have £75 for you, £75 for a friend refer a friend offer. I'm moving house, and whilst I could move the current broadband (conveniently just out of contract and price hiked this month) I think even with just cashback coming as a new customer seems to be a better deal. I'm sure I can get a…

Post Office "cooling off period" when customer dies?
When a family member died, Post Office said that they are legally obliged to implement a 14 day "cooling off period" before closing their phone service account. This sounds nuts to me: the account holder lived alone in a rented flat so the estate will have to pay line rental for 14 days so an empty property has a phone…
