You are never going to guarantee that will happen. Sky charge something like £8.99 every month for insurance on their boxes so if they always respond to that threat they would drop the charge as being redundant. They are like every company it might work or they might call your bluff. I have read people saying the threat hasn't worked. Anyway if the choice is between knowing I will get a free call out and having to threaten to leave or email Jeromy Darroch as I seen somebody having to do the other day then there isn't much choice really which is best to have. This is getting seriously offtopic anyway. It's upto everybody to decide personally whether the tivo box is worth that much. For some people not owning the box might be an issue but to me that is illogical as it isn't a lot different to how it works on any platform. The box wont work properly if you stop subscribing.
