My Sky+ box has just started to make a awful noise. It sounds like a knocking sound and the box has crashed. Have tried rebooting, Turning off for 10 mins, It still makes the same noise. I have a feeling the hard drive has failed, Its a Thompson 160 box. Have been on the phone to Sky for 35 mins now and getting ****ed off with their bloody hold music. The box is 11 months old they better not try to charge me for the call out or try giving me a recon box.
If only Tvdrive was here now but my area is not going live till the new year

Ok up date
I now officially hate SKY. Finaly got through and yes the box is goosed. Then told if they find nothing wrong bla bla there will be a charge. That i can handle as i know the box is goosed.
Next came the bomb shell How would December the 8th be for a engineer in the morning
what i said sorry sir but that the soonest we can get someone out. Have said yes but might have my cable package upgraded tomorrow and just dump the sky box in the bin and tell them to sod off in short jerky movements. Then get a TVdrive in January.
Sky you are officially CRAP
