Sit before reading this.
About 12 yrs ago, we bought a panasonic viera tv which was perfect for us, later we bought a freesat box and dish. Never had a moment problem. About once a year I would do a search for new channels and that's about all. Great to be able to store recorded stuff. However, a bulb went inside and no picture. We could have…

BT YouView+ box on Plusnet
I am moving from BT to Plusnet. I currently subscribe to BT Sport HD on BT TV. After I move to Plusnet, if I subscribe to BT Sport HD on Plusnet TV, will my BT YouView+ box still work? Plusnet are saying I have to buy a YouView+ box from them but I'm trying to avoid buying another box when I already have a perfectly good…

Is £17 good for sky renewal?
Hi I just wondered if anyone could advise whether £17 is a good deal for renewing sky basic bundle? I have been lucky enough to be getting free sky for the last 6 months (no idea how that happened, when I cancelled my sports bundle it took it down to £0!). They (retention’s team) have said now the lowest they can do is…

Hi all I’m in contract with VM and the first 12 months are due to run out this December coming. I know I can leave contract early due to them increasing prices but can I do it still in the first 12 months? Cheers

ditching sky all together, what would be best?
I have had sky tv for years now, but these days I rarely watch TV I mostly watch catch up or netflix. I do record stuff but its shows on channels with catch up facility. I haggled down the cost last year and signed into a 12 month contract which is about to end. I do not have a TV aerial as it fell off the roof in a storm…

Sky not honouring an offer accepted on chat
I have been sky for a long time and for the first time i need to complain about their customer service. Yesterday I was offered a 75% off deal by their upgrade department on chat .

Rumours about Sky
I hear rumours that Sky's contract with its satellite provider will shortly expire and Sky are not renewing Instead - they are only planning on allowing internet connections - which will require a Q box at an increased price compared to "normal" HD.. Don't know how true this is - but if it is true - I can see many…

Sky owe me £740!
Hi all, this is my first post so be gentle! My Sky bill has been getting higher recently (as has everyones) so I decided to investigate a bit. I just have one SkY+ HD box, used to have Multiroom but cancelled it in July 2012. I have been a Sky customer since 2003. I noticed on the Bill it had an additional charge of £10.00…

Virgin TV...stay or what alternatives?
I am currently a Virgin Media customer but my contract will be expiring next month. I am being quoted a £22 per month price increase to stay with VM on the same package (Player TV, 100mb Internet & Phone). Frankly the TV channels are pretty limited and I'm sure I would survive fine with Freeview/FreeSat, the internet is…

New TV recommendations please
Hi I'm in the market for a new TV. I think 55" would be about right. I don't want to spend more than around £700 and obviously I would be happy to spend less! What is the best I could get for this money, in your opinion? Thanks

Don't know where else to put this - the BBC owes me £1300 and I want it paying!!
I am in the odd position of being owed money by the BBC - just over £1300. I basically appeared on a quiz show last year which I won, and I was paid my travel expenses but never got paid the prize money. I could really do with the cash to clear some debts, and clearing out some paperwork last week I found the remittance…

Which budget TV for bedroom?
Hi, I'm just back from Tesco where I saw a Tecknika 24inch tv for £99. I've no experience with the brand but I assume it's the cheapest build/quality wise. I think it was only HD Ready which we're not that concerned about because it will only be used in the bedroom for freeview/youtube/usb stick. It has 2 HDMI ports and 1…
