Just got an email telling me they sky are going to rob me of even more money as of June.

Been looking at BT TV, so I'm wondering what people's opinions are on it?

I don't need sport etc. Don't really watch much TV in general but the mrs does

I've got to go through all this bollocks in May when my renewal is up. My sky broadband is shit so my bargaining point is if they can't give me at least 10mbps then I'm not paying full price. Currently only get 3mbps and there is no BT or Virgin where I live so Sky only real option.

I got an increase too. Is everyone's £5?

Will sack it off at the end my contract anyway. I can't stand the broadband or the Sky+ box anyway.

Surely that's just the exchange not being upgraded? And nothing to do with Sky?

Our estate is 3mb whether we like it or not. Has been the 6 years we've been here

There was a news article the other day saying the worst average speed in the UK was 2mbps. I use Netflix etc and with the countrys increased reliance on internet speeds to provide them with entertainment, 3mbps just isn't cutting it anymore. I had higher speeds with NTL some 10 years ago. If Sky use the exchange as an excuse then that's fine but I'll still blame them. People paying same cost as me for brodband are getting 10mbps.

Just downloaded kodi. Takes me back to xbmc, nothing has changed. Chucked a couple of repos on it and got plenty of shows and movies.

Just need to find the fucking kardashians to keep her happy.

Got a kodi box off my mate last week. Already watched a few films and the walking dead on it. Sky prices are a joke now. Need to downgrade mine.

put uk turks on it, all the sports channels and loads of sky channels etc

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

Does your Sky not use a BT line...?

We got rid of Sky due to costs.
The only channel we used regular was Baby TV. This can be found on YouTube which we currently run through an Apple TV.
