I ve been a long time SKY customer mainly for the sports also Discovery channel and Sky Atlantic I watch a bit ,about a month ago my old HD box started playing up and I lost most of the sports channels - no signal being received and it was starting to **** me off . Happened to mention it to a neighbour and he said theres other ways of watching Sky sports wink wink . So I made the decision to cancel Sky - was costing £70 p/m for a **** service . I duly phoned Sky and surprisingly got through fairly quickly and cancelled without the usual hassle .
That was the end of that but no as expected Sky phoned and offered me the Q box - free install - full sports package for £31 p/m after some thought I thought WTF lets do it I could be like Idris with my new all singing all dancing Sky Q box - so a date was set for the installation - today - was quite excited waiting for the call from my installer - a young lady - not being sexist I thought hmm not sure - but she might be attractive - sadly not . She wanted to see the position of the dish so I took her up the back alley -sorry could nt resist it - Anyway we have this crappy extension one story virtually flat roof with a slight fall for run off - I ve been up there many times and its very safe but as it turns out its not safe at all according to Sky . No its safer up a ladder according to Sky because even though its a flat roof they cant anchor their harness or something - I started glazing over at this point I had to stop myself from using certain words but I never swear at a woman - unless shes a total ***** .
So no Sky Q for me and I ve re cancelled Sky again all because of their pathetic health and safety bollox - it did nt bother the original installer 22 years ago in fact he was pleased if I remember - how times have changed anyway I m just off to see my neighbours little black box in action nudge nudge say no more
