[QUOTE="benny, post: 15793, member: 175010"] I have 2 digiboxes and took sky up on their "OFFER" of a £50 total subscription.Since then i have moved house and have not even connected my 2nd box to the dish.I went over to my old house to pick up some mail and sky had sent me a letter on the 10th Jan saying that cos my 2nd box was not connected to the the phone line they were now billing me for £38 times 2. £76 !!!! Of course i was not best pleased.I phoned them straight away,the first option on the automated line was for people who have just had this letter,so that tells you that it is popular.I explained my situation and the bird on the end of the phone could not give a sh** about it.She tried to tell me that the digibox needs to be connected to the phone line "So that we at sky can ensure that your box is working correctly" To which i reply "Oh iam sorry i thought that it needed to be connected so that i can play space invaders at 75p a time." They must think im stupid! I very nearly told her were to stick her card,but cos i watch ma BBC etc through it,I reduced my package down to the family package £18.50 each.Sky now get £37 of my hard earned cash,not the £50 that they were.... My "Programme Advisor" (Bloke on the end of a phone) told me that i had violated my contract. I would'nt wipe my Ar** of that contract as more sh** will come off it than on. As you can tell im a bit peaved. Its not the blokes fault that he is working for sky cos he failed the Mc Donalds aptitude test, now is it........ [/QUOTE]
