[QUOTE="expat2, post: 22137, member: 175981"] This is what BBC had to say after I complain for moving to Astra2D I only cancel what I consider private Dear G……. Thank you for your e-mail to Greg Dyke. As I am sure you will appreciate, the Director-General receives more correspondence than he can deal with personally, so once e-mails have been read they are forwarded by his office to BBC Information. This department has a wealth of knowledge about BBC programmes and policies and is experienced in the workings of the Corporation. The Director-General has therefore authorised us to reply on his behalf. I was sorry to note your disappointment with the BBC's decision to migrate to the Astra 2D satellite. For more information on why this decision was taken, please visit the following BBC News website: [url]http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/tv_and_radio/2843621.stm[/url] Thank you once again for taking the time to contact the BBC.

I read the amount of money that SKY was asking for remaining on the sky EPG, but you certainly you did not think for a minute for all expat who live around Europe and want to remain in touch with Britain, I known you might say is due to the copyright, but if we all pay the licence in UK and pay the SKY subscription by direct debit, ( like me and my wife) officially BBC & SKY they do not infringe the law, but thousands and thousand of British people living abroad are mostly happy to watch the 6 o'clock news and feel like they still live in England. We can only hope the "The United State of Europe" will become soon a law and forget the copyright problem Yours [/QUOTE]
