  • Is anyone using Sky Mobile ? I'm currently with Tesco but their prices seem a lot higher than Sky. Both use the O2 network so no difference there. My contract is up so thinking of swapping over. Anyone have any 'don't do it' or general bad service comments? The carrying data over bit seems useful […]

  • Hi all… just after some independent opinions… I have a VM install with 4 units in one building. The VM the engineer ran one cable from the street to the basement. He then installed a 2 way passive splitter : one output for one unit and then the other output into a cupboard. In the […]
  • Best part of the forum to ask? Gone away for a holiday, and come back to find the girls have bust my telly. (Could have been eldests bf, he’s got a habit of breaking stuff) It’s a decade old Samsung UE32F5000AK, nothing special, it’s just for Skyq watching in the evenings. There is sound, but […]
  • What colours do virgin use for phone lines… My cable is broken and I want to re connect
  • Had sky Q for a while now and everything was fine. Over xmas, some mornings i would have to reset the wifi connection on the box itself…. which means inputting the lengthy wifi password. I put this down to maybe interference by a multitude of flashing fairy lights causing interference. Now all that's cleared away, […]

  • Not used this part of the forum much. My girls have got for Christmas, or the middle ones birthday in January, every Just Dance game since they came out. We used to get them on the Wii, then the Xbox one. This year however, it’s only available on Xbox series X or series S, not […]
  • Hey guys! I really like the game "The Last of Us". Do you know something similar and similar in theme? I will be grateful for feedback.
  • Well i dont know about your views but i cannot wait for the release of the new game out november 3rd. It looks like they are going back to proper old school war games with no silly space walking or wall jumping like the other previous versions of COD. Anyone remember the original COD and […]
  • Somehow from the recesses of my mind I remembered a level from a FPS perspective that was an almost entirely dark cave with a light source at the middle. To get through this level you had to avoid being struck by the light source as it would slowly burn your character to death. It was […]
