    *** Sky TV Cancellation & Negotiation Thread ***

    After losing access to billing once again, that's Sky's way of saying they haven't acted on what they said they were going to do and again my account had not been cancelled as promised. Instead the agent apparently had an error while cancelling and instead of processing it, they ignored it. No...

    *** Sky TV Cancellation & Negotiation Thread ***

    3rd agent finally cancelled the contract. No penalty, 5 months in to a 18 month contract. They've introduced a new term where once the cancellation has gone through you can't re-negotiate. That 50% off leaflet is cheaper than what they'd increased my price to after telling me I was on the best...

    *** Sky TV Cancellation & Negotiation Thread ***

    The latest price increase is pushing my contract up 17.5%, once again going to cancel mid contract as my contract states the maximum it can be increased is 10%. Only just got the account fixed from the other issues it had.

    Madame Web (2024 - SSU)

    Regret watching that. Written by 12 year olds, for 12 year olds, with the consistency of a 12 year old trying to tell lies in an awkward interrogation. The free upgrade to 4DX was the only thing keeping me awake.

    Water Bill - Anyone beat this?

    I'm on my 2nd meter in 4 years as the first one stopped. Water comp tried to charge me a "typical" property for the year they reckon the old one was faulty for. I'm not sure the 2nd meter is any better as the standing charge makes up 72% of the bill, not the usage. I've supposedly used 14m3 in a...

    Motorsport Off Topic Thread

    I'm so glad they mentioned they were installing a heatpump for their swimming pool in that article. It's really helped clear things up. Maybe this technology could be used instead of the tyre warmer ban. "submerge in hot water before use trackside".

    Migration - Animation/Cartoon movie

    It's disappointing our locals are not playing this into the evening. Hoping once award season dies off a bit this will get some later showings. The latest is 6.20 which I get it's aimed at kids being a U, for regular cinema goers it's not a convenient time.

    What film did you watch last night?

    Holdovers I was expecting to be an us vs them chaos around the school, but the development of the story and the deeper connections helps it become a much better film and some good story telling. You have reasons to like and dislike all the characters and the roles are played very well. I think...

    The Beekeeper (Jan 24)

    Think it's on par with the later Transporter films. I don't regret seeing at the cinema and wasn't disappointed as I've seen far worse, but I'll see most things.

    The Beekeeper (Jan 24)

    Anything "Sky Original" and I'm already expecting a low quality product, but as it featured and was produced by Statham I had to give it a go. The writing was bad, typical B-grade acting and cgi. Unrealistic expectations on the hero in fight scenes, a leading character who should not have been...

    New Star Trek series - 2017

    Never know, they might have written a fantastic story and fixed all the characters in the break, then we'll all be crying out it ended too soon and it deserved more! (better chance of a red shirt surviving an away mission) Enterprise deserved a 5th season.

    *** Sky TV Cancellation & Negotiation Thread ***

    It's frustrating the Paramount+ sub can't be activated elsewhere when using Sky+ instead of SkyQ. Annoyingly I can't use SkyGo Extra while these issues are ongoing because no one can fix my account to activate it. In 17 months time I think NowTV will get priority over renewing Sky, especially...

    *** Sky TV Cancellation & Negotiation Thread ***

    After re-activating Sky they've managed to break my account. Billing doesn't work at all as I can't see past/future bills and the current one refreshes a login screen. My product list just gives a technical error. Wasted 3 hours on the phone over 3 days before/after Christmas trying to get this...

    McDonald’s general discussion

    No different to letting a steak rest in an oven after cooking. McDonalds burgers are best when the cheese has had time to melt and stick to the burger, but you don't get that when it's quickly wrapped and served without sitting under the lamps for half a lifetime. When they introduced the wraps...

    McDonald’s general discussion

    All food is assembled to order now, no longer do you get the joy of a double cheeseburger left on the warming rack for 10 minutes perfectly melted. It's why orders take so long to process as they can't make batches of burgers. Wendy's is good but still on burger king prices.

    What's with delivery drivers etc. ignoring the doorbell and hammering on the door instead?

    I have a ring doorbell. It's wired for power, it's constantly connected as there's an access point next to it. It's linked to smart speakers, my phone and to the lights so when my doorbell is pressed it chimes, alerts me and also changes the colour of the lights in two main rooms so I can see...
