Call faults and tell them about your box. I had mine replaced this morning due to it being irregularly unresponsive. No questions asked.
I will - I was with Sky before and it broke outside of the 12 month warranty.

They came and fixed it soon enough when I said I was cancelling.

Its all very well saying that's not guaranteed, but who in their right mind is going to pay £60p/m for services you can't use because the supplied equipment fails. It's hardly rocket science that they should repair/replace, because they lose the £60p/m revenue otherwise.

I'm sick of contacting Virgin only for them to say "if it is OK when the engineer comes out you will be charged for the call-out", and "they will only replace it with what the engineer has with him". What's the point in me wasting a day for them to come out and replace with the same equipment, or worse still charge me for the privilege?
