Advice for issue with Sky mobile
Can someone please advise as to what we can do next. My daughters faulty iPad was returned to sky 3 weeks ago and we still haven’t received a replacement. We have called sky every day since and have been told one is being sent out but still there is no sign of it. I have asked for a manager to call me back on each occasion…

NOWtv and LG's
Had a warning on both our LG TVs that the NOWtv app will no longer be available from August 24th 2020. Looking into this it appears this is because of the Netcast OS platform no longer being supported. This is what I hate about SmartTVs. Once the other 3rd party streaming services decide they no longer want to support the…

BBC licence fee
My mom is 87 and has just been informed that she will have to prove that she is in receipt of pension credit, that's not an issue as she has my sister and myself to administer her affairs, however I'm concerned about people who don't have someone to sort things out such as this, I don't feel it's right that older people…

Virgin media and house move
Hi Just moving into a new property and looking to get virgin as I saw their wall box on the viewing. I’ve seen deals for 12 and 18 months. It’s a rented property so I know I’m only guaranteed to have it for 12 months. Given virgin isn’t available everywhere, what would happen if we had to move to a new property and virgin…

Can I remove this phone socket?
I'm renovating a back room, and this socket was on the back wall. I assume it is an extension for a phone socket. I no longer have a landline, and I'd like to just get rid of it to tidy up the room. If it's just an extension, I should be fine to disconnect it at the master socket and chop the cable, taping up and putting…

BT TV
I'm looking at renewing and noticed they have an entertainment package that includes NOW TV, it's not clear though if that includes the pass or just that you can get to NOW through their box. It's only £2 more than I currently pay for the basic package so seems a bit odd. Anyone know?

Plusnet goodwill gesture
Has anyone else had a small reduction in their latest bill? I've had £1.13 knocked off no idea why and it seems quite a small amount to contact them about and it's more a case of me being nosey. We've not knowingly had any service issues so don't think it's that.

Sky Existing Customer Offer on Account
HiI've just logged on to my Sky account and there's a renew offer for Sky Sports or Sky Entertainment that effectively extends my current offer for another 18 months. Obviously this will be subject to their next price increase. It seems to me they are offering me a deal that I would normally have to haggle for. Has anyone…

Nokia 6300
Years ago I upgraded from a 3310 Brick (my wife still has the Brick) to `a 6300 and have had no complaints about the model whatsoever except; It doesn't accept emojis and that wouldn't worry me but two rectangles (Tofu?) instead of a verbal answer can lead to confusion if sent in response to a question - was it a Smiling…

Legal position on giving Virgin notice via a letter
I called Virgin to cancel my Sky Sports when the lockdown started. Somehow - and I kick myself for this - I got talked into agreeing another bundle contract which was disadvantageous to me. I tried calling to try to cancel this but I was on hold constantly and couldn't get through. With no email address or other way I…
