Re: Useful STB Info

Then they had the cheek to try and charge me £10 if the engineer comes on Monday between 4 and 7 and no one is in. I told him I wanted someone between 5 and 7.

I think I will wait until the engineer knocks my door and leave him waiting for 40 mins before answering the door. lol only kidding.

to be fair it is difficult to narrow down appts due to not knowing how long each job would take,traffic/road conditions/techs finishing at different times etc,..but if you ask them to narrow it down they can officially do this with a nod from the manager on service in that area,try that.

Re: Useful STB Info

Just reading through this section and wondered if anyone could clarify what the "tune" message means - it appeared without anything being done one day and now it appears every time the box is booted and wont go away. The display on the TV also tells me that it's being upgraded but never goes away either. Hopefully have an engineer out next week!

If it says PAt for more than a couple of seconds, you need to ring VM.
