Beware of unplugging your phone line from your sky box...

Flimber

I'm sure it's not true in this case but there is a well-known scam which involves selecting Sky Box Office films, unplugging the phone-line at a certain point and then getting the film for 'free' (information as sold on eBay but reported elsewhere). Of course, the snag is that all these film events are stored and will eventually be uploaded to Sky one way or another. Some users of this trick were caught out in exactly the same manner as the OP here.

Please read the whole thread and you will you see this was not the reason why the box was unplugged.

I never said it was, READ what I wrote, that is why sky is clamping down on people who unplug their phoneline.
Oh and chaffordred before you get on your high horse I know the OP didn't do this as a scam effort, I am just saying SKY has been wise to people doing it in the past so are now clamping right down on it. I was just telling you what I know!.
