Been on hol for a week. Come bck yester and for some unbeknown reason all my recordings have failed.

No Celeb Juice, Big Fat Gypsy Wedding or Geordie Shore....to name a few.

Yes, I hate myself for watching such trash, but AIBU to phone Sky and tell them I'm not paying my bill this month and to feck off?

Leave the bastards!

Fancy them depriving you of such quality viewing

squeakytoy · 18/03/2012 09:15

not really skys fault if you have had a power cut .. unless the box is broken.

duckdodgers · 18/03/2012 09:17

Mmm was your sky box full?

WhiteTrash · 18/03/2012 09:18

I had this. Its because I switched all the power off. Doh.

willbeskinny · 18/03/2012 10:20

I didn't switch the power off and it had recorded Easties and Monster Bug Wars, hence the reason I think somehow Sky are trying to tell me I need to change me viewing :o

And box isn't full - only @ about 52%.

Go up to the search thing at the top of tv guide screen, type in name of prog you have missed and it will tell you if and when it is repeated?

slatternlymother · 18/03/2012 13:23

Ugh, they're shit. Their iPhone recoding app doesn't work either Hmm

NettoSuperstar · 18/03/2012 13:23

I wanted to watch the F1 live, which is why I got Sky in the first bloody place.
I'm in hospital so can't waatch it at home.

I'm having to wait till the highlights appear on the BBC iplayer instead.

Sky are on my Black List of companies I will nevernevernever world without end have anything to do with ever again.

They are Bastards.

And for that reason, YANBU.

Hate Sky. When we were cancelling their service (to change over to Virgin Grin), some obnoxious woman from Sky demanded to know why we were changing services, and when we said that we were simply changing because we had found a cheaper service elsewhere, she insisted she had to know what service, what price, and when I refused to give further details, she said "well then I can't cancel your service." Shock And then refused to get a supervisor to the phone as well. Just refused. Angry She also made the lovely comment that perhaps our Sky would have been cheaper if we'd not "ordered all the pay per view stuff" we'd ordered over the last 12 months. Um.. 2 sky sports events and one new release movie? Hardly extravagant over 12 months, eh? Hmm

Had to call back to get a supervisor on the phone to make a complaint. Which I'm sure went nowhere anyway. But at least we no longer have Sky. Grin

Triggles · 18/03/2012 21:21

Oh, sorry. YANBU. Grin
