whiteowl Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Nowt but praise for them here, fantastic customer services, rang up a few days ago, in 5 mins I had renewed at 50% discount, and compared to the licence fee is fantastic value for money. Roughly twice as much for the base price of the smallest bundle with approx 25% of the time devoted to adverts ? I think you and I have differing opinions about value for money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you and I have differing opinions about value for money Maybe, but I will show you my reasoning, licence fee £144 ? per year , programs I watch thanks to this fee 0, zero, zilch , nothing, there isn't one single program I watch on these channels. Sky fee £ 300 per year, hundreds of shows I watch and all in high definition. Sky is a godsend , it really is ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxman Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 We had Sky a few years ago. The modem failed so I rang up to get a replacement only to be argued at for 30 minutes by some Irish bloke who told me there was nothing wrong with my modem and the internet was working fine. I told him I'd had someone out to look at it and in their expert opinion the modem was fecked. He then said only a Sky engineer could determine such a thing and unless I'd pay for a call out they wouldn't do anything. Result - moved to Virgin. Still not happy with them but at least their (frequent) engineer visits are free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Joker Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 . . . I rang up to get a replacement only to be argued at for 30 minutes by some Irish bloke. . . Result - moved to Virgin. Still not happy with them but at least their (frequent) engineer visits are free. See? I told you the Irish and the Scots and the Welsh hate the English Virgin Media rely heavily on Indian call centres, but you can use this to your advantage and squeeze a good deal out of them (the Scottish call centre workers are notoriously tight by comparison) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
