Makes me worried it wasn't done right.<br /><br />Also, this credit limit thing is bonkers, I'm gonna be SO annoyed if that applies for me as I specifically only purchased as being on my bill meant it would come out AFTER my next paycheck.

Engineer nice bloke and no issues. <br /><br />As for some comments on here about is it worth it........well that is a matter of opinion, obviously! But to dismiss it as an expensive v+ box or not much better is crazy. <br /><br />I'm not going to go in to the comparisons of this box compared to the V+ box (or Sky 1tb box for that matter) as you can get that info easily on this blog as well as others. <br /><br />But I do appreciate its not for everyone. You have to want to be given suggestions, use the 1tb of hard drive space, be able to look forward 3 weeks on the guide and make wish lists (a personal fav). Otherwise it isn't worth it. <br /><br />Me, I think it's quality. I will make use of all of the above and plenty of it. And my little girl hasn't stopped laughing at cats doing silly things on you tube for 40mins! It's funnier on a big screen compared to the laptop apparently. <br /><br />SOLD!streaky_7https://www.blogger.com/profile/08233517704856075917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2644371100807363751.post-51538721358818929142011-04-14T17:42:27.365+01:002011-04-14T17:42:27.365+01:00I wish I had looked at the comments on here today,...I wish I had looked at the comments on here today, TiVo installed yesterday, tv, phone, broadband and email suspended today, called and paid off the £149.95 balance at 10:00 hours, account still suspended at 17:30 hours!
