Best ring SKY and check...
use 0800 279 2000 (press 1 after connection)
thus avoiding the 0870 rip-off and the Indian call-centre incompetence.

That sounds like you've got Sky World (£41) and another £6/month
premium channel. Are you quite sure you don't subscribe to FilmFour or
MUTV or something like that?

Doesn't the Sky account show what movies were ordered? In any case, I
should set a PIN number to prevent people ordering anything without
your consent.


Thanks

We not had accounts from Sky & I didn't know that there was a facility
to check them. I've now found out how to view them on-screen & have
requested paper bills in future.

You can actually check your bill online. It tells you what was watched
and when (box office)

Pete


how do I do this please?



Sorry just re read my post. Not sure about actually online on the computer,
but you can access your account via your sky box. I think its in the
customer services menu!


Thanks for that, I didn't realise there was that facility. I've now
found out how to view my bills on screen & see that there is an option
for paper bills, which I've requested for the future

Good tip, but it could be morally dubious. It's the subscription number
for the Disney Channel, so you're making Disney pay for the call. There
used to be a similar scam by dialling the freephone number for Film
Four.

Having said that, it *is* Disney...



hehe rip off disney! poor them and there £22 for there dvd's

Are you sure you haven't accidentally ordered any of the 'special'
channels after a late return from the pub?

Sorry guys, it wasn't movies after all, number one son had ordered a
football match. So technically he was right in denying that he was the
one who ordered a movie. Great isn't it when you subscribe to their
sports channels & still have to pay for some football matches.

Indeed it is.

Personally I cancelled Sky and one of the reasons was too much
football, yet I know plenty of people whose wives and girlfriends have
just learned to accept that once football first starts at 8.15 on a
saturday they shouldnt expect any conversation until Sunday!
