By that logic, if he was a O2 subscriber, would it would be OK if he bought someone else's stolen phone? ;)

Well, seeing as you are neither a judge nor a maker of the law, how it looks to you is spectacularly irrelevant. Your "friend" has bought stolen goods.

Try to get your facts right as no one owns any Virgin Media equipment as it is only leased.

Using your logic means that I could go to the local Avis car hire and because I pay them to hire the car for a week it now belongs to me.:rolleyes:

Would like to be measured for your jacket with the long arms with leather straps and buckles at the end now or later.:rolleyes:

Welcome to the forum.

I don't believe so, but someone with more knowledge may come along and give a more informed answer.

Only by ringing up and asking for it to be put back on your account as an additional box.
