Unhappy

My Sky digi box is playing up.

The only period Ive got the time to watch it, and its messed up.

Phoned them up, and got the big fob off.[img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

We can send a technicion round to confirm its fcuked(£65), then sell you one for £200.00.........Yeah cheers.

Ive been paying £40 per month for four years, the cheeky *****.[img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Advice please.

Cheers Yoza

PS. Ive done the reset, turn off bit, and replace the card, to no avail !

Hello

Switch it off at the mains for at least 10 minutes, switch on without the card.

And if all else fails, take the thing apart. It's no use anyway, and Sky will try and sell you another one.

Steve.

Cheers that link was handy.


Now then, why can I watch Sky upstairs?, the rooms are linked by a mouse thing, and they all work. But downstairs it doesnt.

Does this suggests the box is OK ?

Very stange, Ill have to watch the Grinch in bed.......!

Hello

that would imply that the box is fine, but there is something wrong with the link between the two. Has someone detuned the television downstairs?

And if you watch long enough, I'm sure you can find the green thing attractive so it will be good you are watching it in bed.

I think I will send the better half down to re-tune the telly. Got to be worth a try.

Cheers.

Ps. The Grinch is far to hairy for my liking.
