Well. not quite true. NTL's service gets a little flaky if the street cabinets get hot..
However, it's not as bad as Sky. One of my mates has been trying for years to get me to get Sky, but when I was at his house on Sunday, he tried to turn the Sky box on and got a no signal message. Apparently, this has happened a lot recently and is caused by a neighbour's tree growing into the path of his sky dish.
He has now either got to get the neighbour to cut the tree down (unlikely from what I have been told) or get the dish mounted on a pole and moved up.
Also, bear in mind, I have seen Sky boxes fail to get a signal when the cloud is too thick.
