				The Sky Appreciation thread
			 
 
			
			Isn't it wonderful?
 Sky i mean, i've had it for about a year now - never had a problem.
 
 Customer Services have ALWAYS been polite and helpful and also really fast to answer.
 
 Sky+ is the mutts, nothing else comes close AND its free now - no 10 quid subscription charge.
 
 So if your missing Lost, The Simpsons, Stargate, BattleStar Galactica or in fact want to watch any popular series past the second season i'd suggest Sky.
 
 Cant recommend it enough.

Apart from the obvious channels that I hardly ever watched what could Sky offer me that I don't already get with VirgiNTL?

			Basically Tv is rubbish everywhere........There will always be something to pick at whatever the company you use.....let's just all watch DVD's instead.

Still Sky+ and normal def telly is second to none with Sky.
 
Never had billing, customer service or even TV service issues with Sky, how many NTL folk can honestly say that?
