Regarding your difficulty making ends meet, well the whole nation is currently learning some painful lessons about living within our means. If it's a struggle, you need to take a long hard look at your outgoings and consider where you can trim them back. How about dropping your TV and Internet down a tier or two?
We cancelled Sky altogether when I had a spell of unemployment a few years ago and have never looked back. The box operates in Freesat mode to this very day.

Read this thread a couple of times and this is probably the only constructive response to the OP. Ok I know Arthur has issues with facts and can be over emotive, but come on guys he opened a thread with a post that shows frustration and difficilties in his life and he's getting disected for misquoting a "fact". I think sometimes we need to look at what's behind a post and offer constructive advice, maybe evena "we feel your pain" type of response. Life's hard enouh as it is without having to be ripped apart everytime you post something.
