chorus ntl

is it any good my sky has gone tits up again and they want me to pay for someone to install a new box of which i have to pay for of coarse chorus have offer of free installation and half price for first 3 months im tempted to cancell sky 2moro what do you think?

 

had sky for yeas moved to ntl last summer,
my advise stay with sky


call them up and say that you will cancel on the spot and move to a cheaper package with ntl if they dont install a new box from free

 

120% right on this. Stay with Sky

 

whats the problem with chorus does it keep packing in or what?

 

shite quality if you have a big tv

less channels than sky

no red button!!!!

 

i have chorus and a 42 inch tv, dont find anything wrong with the quality, but your right about the rest

 

Its a joke. I've had nothing but problems with ntl all year.

Really poor customer service too

 

the subtitles keep coming up everytime i change channel on my ntl box even if you turn them off each time. it's been doing that for the last week and it's doing my head in..

 

Does anyone think that their new advert, offering digital+ TV, broadband,and phone for €49 per month, is good value?

 

it costs me €65 a month for a 10gig line and digital tv with ntl

 

I had the same problems as south with the subtitles (couldn't complain seeing as it wasn't a legal box).

When i was first getting ntl in i nearly went mad, their customer service is a joke.

 

Hi mate

My own Sky+ box has been acting up a bit of late, so I fear I may soon find myself in the same situation as you are in now.

However, do all you can not to turn to NTL, their CS is terrible, their service is definitely second to Sky (no red button, weaker quality picture & audio, less channels) ... the only real positive for NTL is that the seem to be cheaper.

Definitely ring Sky and tell them your thinking of moving because they won't give you the box for nothing, tell them that your a loyal customer to them, but now you've see NTL offering newbies XXXXX and you think Sky could at least give you the replacement kit, to keep your business etc. There have been many many posts on this forum, from members who've successfully gotten discounts out of Sky etc, so no doubt Sky are willing to try and do deals !

 

i rang sky some months ago looking for a discount they gave me three months at half price when that was up i again rang looking for a discount they said there was nothing they could do i then said i was cancelling my account the girl said hang on a minute and she would see what she could do she came back with 20% off for the next year
what i.m saying is sky will do what they can to keep good customers
a friend of mine works for chorus he is forever out on breakdowns so stay away from them
