generally smaller than a video recorder. credit division service

Questions about digital TV coverage in
the UKHow do I find out which digital TV providers are available
in my area
Our postcode checker will find out which digital TV
providers can serve your property. Sky Digital covers the whole
of the UK but your ability to receive signals may be impaired
if a building, tree or other object blocks the line of sight
between the mini-dish and satellite. Digital terrestrial TV is
available to 85% of the UK, and the cable companies (ntl and
Telewest) cover 55% of UK homes. credit federal first service
Why is there never more than one digital cable provider in
any area
The UK is divided into cable franchises, each of which has
only one cable operator licensed to construct a cable TV and
telephone network. Therefore there will never be more than one
cable provider that can serve an individual address. consumer credit service
Questions about choosing a digital
TV providerWhat are the advantages of a bundled digital TV deal
Choosing a combined TV and telephone package from ntl or
Telewest means your telephone line rental is included in your
monthly package cost. This removes the need for a separate BT
phone line. center credit family service
If I get a bundled deal, can I get additional phone
extensions installed
At the time of installation, both ntl and Telewest will be
able to connect additional telephone points. There is a charge
for this, though any existing telephone points can be
reconnected free of charge. credit reporting service
Questions about getting connected to
digital TVIs it possible to get my digital TV installed at the
weekend
Most providers will install on a Saturday, but these
appointments tend to be booked up very quickly and may mean
that you will have to wait for longer to get connected. cca credit division service
What happens if I have a problem with my reception once it
has been installed
You should contact your provider, who will make the
necessary arrangements to remedy the problem (this might
involve sending an engineer to visit your property). Some free
to air digital set-top boxes may need an aerial upgrade if they
are located in a poor reception area. credit free report service
Once I have connected to digital TV, how do I upgrade my TV
channel package
Once connected, you can upgrade your channel package by
simply calling the customer service number of your chosen
subscription provider. It is possible to change your package on
a monthly basis. By calling your provider they will be able to
tell you when you can change your package choice. card credit customer discover
What happens if I move house during my 12 month minimum
contract period
If you get connected to ntl or Telewest and move within your
12 month contract period to a serviceable area, they will
re-install your service for free. If your new property is
outside a serviceable area they will terminate your contract
with no penalty. credit repair report service
If you have a digital satellite system, Sky will move and
re-install both your dish and set-top box at their standard
installation cost whether you are within the minimum period or
not. credit legal repair service
Do I need to include the set-top box in my household
contents insurance
If your cable equipment is stolen, you will be responsible
for the cost of replacing it. The digital satellite set-top box
belongs to you, so it s up to you whether you want to
replace it. However, you can only get one free minidish and
digibox from Sky. Prices vary from provider to provider. As a
matter of course, you should include any equipment in your
household contents insurance. cic credit monitoring service
