to think Talk Talk should just send out a replacement You View box rather than send an engineer out in a week's time?

After eventually making the person on the phone realise that there was no power at all going to the box - which is why the light was not one, she said that an engineer would pop round in a week's time - but if it was my fault, I'd be charged £50.

The power is not one. I asked her why they can't simply send a replacement box which would arrive next week. I could then post the old one back so the engineer can look at it and mend it at their own time.

I have this feeling I'm gong to lose my recordings.

Luckily - I kept my old Freeview box so hope it stlll works.

But it just seems a waste of their time.

Ooops.

Looks like someone me might have somehow but no idea how turned the power button off at the back.

I checked that. Honest

One grovelling call to make back

Talk talk are utter shite and their bloody calls cost the earth.

The culprit was DS who has his own way of turning the box off.
