I can understand the guy who does it on the quiet, still equally wrong though, but to advertise it on a public forum makes me think it is either empty bravado, a thirteen year old boasting from his bedroom or a no morals lowlife who'd thieve anything not nailed down.
What category do you fit into?

My card arrived a couple of days ago (Northampton) and I was feeling some trepidation as I did it ..... but its straight forward - old card straight out - new card straight in. Minutes later all sorted.

(...... and a good old dust under the machine!!!)

Is it my imagination or is the picture better than before? My first thought it was but how on earth can it be - then hubby said 'is that picture better?'

Sorry to see you go, Colin

@ digital

combination of wanting all the sports channels in hd, red button (re champion leagues multi screen) and knowing espn lost a lot of premier games this year.

I would have stayed, if they could offer me upgrade to 50mb, but not tie me into full package for a year (just 50mb), but no deal. So decided to move wholesale, as the sport in hd is drawing me in...i know, I hear you shouting.."don't look at the light!", but..it is so temptingggggggggg

gregpegg · 13-08-2010, 18:13

Birmingham is indeed very close - In now have the message saying card is on its way. "Closing Down Sales" this weekend Tipster?

Sorry to see you go fella just a tip if you have taken sky broadband hope you have a good head off hair if your unlucky like me and something goes wrong with it you will pull your hair out in frustration,one fault took 14 days to rectify they tried to blame everything even our living room ceiling fans.

colin25 · 13-08-2010, 18:41

lol...hair already falling out. So if it does happen, it merely accelerates the process.

I might buy a holster, black shirt..yul brynner lookalike might be quite handy. Going out, getting asked, is that a gun in your pocket or are you pleased to see me..

If you have the message and you are in Birmingham then it may be next week from Tuesday onwards which will be good.

Ah ok... but won't you be in a 12 month Sky contract now?

colin25 · 14-08-2010, 06:23

@ dig fan

yes, but I had an interest to wait and see if virgin got more sports, whilst seeing if 50's higher upload helped my gaming (20 upload is dog poo). But didn't want full tie in..in case i wanted to switch just tv. But..i'll try all sky...no harm trying..i can switch back if sky annoy me..after 1 year. As to sky's broadband..my gaming isn't helped now..so not bothered. I just see the point if i get lag every game. Web browsing doesn't need the speed.
