Ditch TV, Keep BB, Free line rental??

Hi,

The problems with sound clipping and the red (excercise) button, have got too bad and I'm seriously considering getting $ky instead.

The question is, If I ditched the TV and kept the 600K BB would I then have to pay line rental on the phone?

If you keep the phone yes, but you should be able to ditch that too if you don't need it

Watch out for the snow/heavy rain/cloud cover. :D

They never affect my Sky reception, unlike the hot days last summer that made NTL DTV pictures unwatchable due to freezing and stuttering.

Were you one of the few that managed to watch the tv during the recent snow then?? Very lucky!

Hot days never affect my NTL DTV picture either, but its fair to make people aware of the potential problems!

I don't understand- we dont have red button infections on NTL- so no probs
