writes Can any one reassure me that this was a one off mistake and that Sky normally do a professional job? -- Oh not again. Name the installer that completed the job, it will be on the papers your friend has. I'm amazed Trading Standards haven't caught up with you yet. Just how many faulty installations to you tell people they need correcting and how much do you charge them. Is all or any of this work you do even required? I might have to find out how many complaints have been made. After reading some of your posts, your company is one I would avoid. The word "cowboy" comes to mind. Bill Eh??????????? -- Down south, no where near Yorkshire Don't even like beer. OK??????????????????? Sheeeeesh................ |

wrote (£100 from my personal experience) you will see a couple of replies which are obviously posted by the bob a job boys. In particular the one that states £25 for a dish, dish hardware, 4 way LNB, clips, cable, connectors, tape etc off ebay. I cannot imagine that this is top quality schmutter that's going to last very long, more so the LNB, but who knows, maybe I was ripped off going to a local satellite parts supplier. Go to ebay yourself and see what the parts cost. Yes, you can pay a lot more but the "cheap" parts works for millions of Sky customers AND it will be same quality of parts you get when you call in your local installer for the £100/120 -- Alan news2009 {at} admac {dot} myzen {dot} co {dot} uk |

Unless his newsreader is set up to show headers he won't know which Bill you are. Mine isn't and I got very confused. True, mine shows the senders email by default so it is relatively easy to see who's who. When I join a thread that Mr Wright is in I normally add to my signature something to the effect of " Bill, a different one" or similar remark to make people aware. I've been using the same signature since before 1998. and have grown rather used to it, so for those who can't see enough of their headers to realise who they are replying to, tough, I'm sticking as "Bill". Poor show though if someone starts to argue with someone else purely on a short form Christian name in a signature. :-) -- Down south, no where near Yorkshire Don't even like beer.

It is all in the database, you know. |
