I have not tried them in the day so as I said I can't comment on sky on that score, however I will try in a bit and let you know how I get on.

My point being though is if sky are that bad in the day I would simply wait until late at night or the early hours before calling so I get through almost straight away!

I also said that the tech support dept are slow to answer the phone, the ones who deal with repairs and exchanges, I accept that but as I have had sky before I am responsible for my own equipment and that is where eBay will come in!

Just to add I called them again and they answered in under a min!

I picked option 4 then option 1, What dept are you calling?

Ohhhh and I had a UK call center.

And just to add, When I do cancel my NTL TV & Telco I am not going to have sky just freeview so I have nothing to gain by telling porkies! I just tried sky's tech support by picking option 2 but gave up after five mins.
I have been calling technical support trying to get this sorry excuse of a system to work . I have had no reason to phone the other dept's yet. I might do next week, The dept will be called disconnections.


Problem is that every time i call them they tell me to do a full reset which then fixes the fault for about 6 hours, Then when i try to rewind tv or stop it it lock's the box up again. It has been twice as bad since the new software they put on the box the other week.

I honestly wish i had stuck with boring old NTL. At least it did not lock up for me every few hours. My honest opinion of SKY+ at this moment in time. IT SUCKS BIG TIME
