I doubt Tipster will have time to respond. His efforts to flee the country from angry clients has faultered on the demise of the latest budget airline to go bust. We call that a Glasgow Kiss, Tipster.

My wife was brought in Sutton Coldfield, and would vehemently deny that it was part of Birmingham.

Nah, it's the other way around - I'm her "bit of rough".

(and yes, I did miss out the word "up" between "brought" (not bought) and "in" ).....

I know it was brought and not bought but it was too close to resist!

Re: All Chipped Cable Boxes Going Down

I quite agree Sutton Coldfield is NOT part of Birmingham, just refering to where the headend is Witton, Birmingham.

Re: All Chipped Cable Boxes Going Down

So I ruffled a few feathers last post lmao! You idiots take life to serious. You really need to take the broom from up your ar ses. My local estate agent has lost all his channels on his chipped box (lives in Manchester). So he went to Bowlers Computer Market and bought a motorised dish. He now receives all channels from accross Europe. Scummy estate agent ha ha good on him I say your all as bad as each other.

P.S I'm waiting for you upset kids to kick off because he now is getting it all free again...

Cost £800. If like the previous post you pay £70 a month it will soon pay for itself.

Oooopsy. Democratic Country I say what I want. No one can stop me. Ban me but you cannot take the thoughts from my head. and that really annoys you doesn't it.HA

For us to take the thoughts from your head, there would have to be some thoughts there in the first place.

Good day to you.

Re: All Chipped Cable Boxes Going Down

I've got no problem with your estate agent. As long as I'm not paying for the services he's getting, it's no skin off my nose.

So an estate agent who on his salary should have been able to pay for services from Virgin Media has decided instead to purchase an £800 satellite system which will still not allow him to view most of the channels he used to steal, brilliant idea.
