Could you list what exclusive channels that VM have that could be a deal breaker to make people change from sky and not just the fact you can record 2 channels and watch another.. I am always open to suggestions to save money but dont really see anything better on VM.
VM Dont really have excellent channels either, but they could take the telewest channels off sky if they wanted to (Bravo, Dicovery H+H/Living etc. and a few otther rubbish channels)We’ve had to remove your signature because your opinion differs from ours.

don`t forget the "free" box offer has now ended, so if you treaten to cancel and they offer you something it`s better to take it, as if you cancell and then go back later on, you might get nothing, and other offers won`t apply to you.
MyUserNamesTaken... yup if you record something after 11pm the box will still record.0 -
TenerC what do you mean "free offer ended"? Is it all over?0

First offer might be over, But i recieved yet another Come back to sky letter just after the other one expired on 1st June. On this one the offer ends 22 June.
I get the feeling that i'll recieve another letter offering Free Sky+ once this one expires.

Just had my refurb sky+ box fitted by very nice man, but sadly the remote sensor is not working, so although I have sky+. I have to get off the sofa to actually record anything! :rotfl: He was very helpful though and said that he would ring me later to let me know when he would be back with another box, I asked nicely if he had any new ones rather than another refurb - so fingers crossed it could work out a better offer than I had thought! :T :T Many Thanks again OP
Forgot to say it was an Amstrad PVR20 -
Be careful when threating to cancel. I got offered £3.50 off top package, free sky+, free sky talk unlimited and credit for broadband activation fee. Said I wanted to think about it and asked for details to be saved. When I rang back no details were saved. I found out that these are point of call offers and may not be available later. All I got offered was the sky +. Cancelled after that. When I called again all offers had gone:mad:
Waited two weeks - now got new sky+ at £49.99 PVR 3 and the waived broadband fee only. Skytalk no longer available
Have learnt a valuable lesson0
