Tell him he can have the dust from underneath it and the bills to power it.

Well, I haven't got rid of it, I'm using it. He's now going on about canceling Sky (that he took a contract out on and I have been paying for 18 months!)

Phone sky and transfer account into your name. Explain to them that you have been paying it for the last 18mths. If they refuse tell them you want 18mth refund and they can chase you ex for the outstanding monies.

As for the computer parts i would tell him where to go.

I have since informed him that if he had said "Coldy, you know, you don't really need that mega graphics card, and I really really do Would you consider a swap please?" - I'd have practically thrown it at him.

But he didn't. He said "Oh, at some point this evening I'm swapping that graphics card in that tower for a smaller one because I need it now."

To which I replied ... "Ah hahahahaha. No. YOu are not. It's mine now."

Serves him right for not using his good manners.

oh good luck with Sky - I'm still getting bills in ex's name as I refuse to pay approx £120 in on month more just for the name to be changed from "mr" FAQ to "mrs" (they want to charge the account that's been transferred from £20, then I'd have to pay 2 months charges at once in the new account name, plus of course I'd already have paid that months bill!!!)

At least he is offering to replace it, even if it is with a smaller something.

He hasn't offered though CC. He's told me what he's doing in my house with my property.

It doesn't work like that

But if he cancels Sky, surely you can take it out in your name? And get a better deal for being a new customer.
