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.

Thats not skys fault though if a big tree is in the way. Plus i bet if a big tree grew in front of NTL uplink and downlink dishes they might lose signal to

Also, bear in mind, I have seen Sky boxes fail to get a signal when the cloud is too thick.

Then the dish is not fitted properly.
The only time I lost signal was when there was a massive thunderstorm last week and that was only for 5 minutes
