And no, I don't think we will be stopping the practice of telling people how to alter the cabling in their own homes any time soon. It's not illegal. If there's a contract between the householder and VM then it may breach that contract, but even that is merely a civil matter between the subscriber and VM.

What you can't seem to understand is Chris, the service isn't a free for all even for the 5 channels you would get by just putting the stb on the network. These have go to be installed correctly otherwise if it turns into a free for all where people just connect them to get,"What is free anyway" the the system will be affected even more by noise and interference, unfortunately you have no idea as to the effects this has on the system. I'M NOT BOTHERED ABOUT IT BEING LEGAL OR CIVIL, plenty of people use this forum to complain about the service that they pay for then possilbly the same people want something for nothing and are totally ignorant to the issues and problems it causes by shoddy do it yourself,"i don't want to pay for the cable to be moved" or "I just want the free channels on the STB" I WANT I WANT. you want a DECENT SERVICE THAT WORKS, THEN PAY FOR IT, YOU WANT IT to work as it should, then pay for it to be done properly.
You and others seem to think well cause you get them for free without subscription it's ok just to hook up a box, no it isn't, you want any service you either pay for a subscription or go down the route of getting freeview with phone line.
The OP can be helped by phoning VM and making a choice.
