Topic: Sky Remote Codes

[Robotochan]

If any of you have sky you might know that the remote looses it's memory if there isn't any batteries or the batteries are dead. So, if your remote does loose it's memory, don't worry, don't call Sky's national rate number... goto: www.digitalspy.co.uk

Why didn't you post that yesterday Robo, as I had to switch telly's owing to my LCD brand new telly's screen blowing up. I had to phone the nat rate number to get the code for Sony as the 0000 number wouldn't work.

Sorry Lona   The only reason I tried to find them today as I got annoyed after the month of having the wrong code

  You had better believe it Michelle, 2 weeks we had it and the screen burned up.  . I had no problems with the dealer but refused a replacement, as once bitten twice shy.  They assured me that I was just one of the unlucky ones but then that's the story of my life.  .  I have chosen another model but just plain widescreen this time. I think I will wait for a couple of years until they perfect these LCD screen tellys as they can't even repair them if something goes wrong and it's an awful lot of money to pay out when even the manufacturer's don't know their life span.  It was excellant for 2 weeks viewing and I will be sorry to go back to regular crt screen but then that's life ain't it.

Just think though Lona with the difference in price between what you paid for that and the CRT one you can afford tp buy me a 32 inch widescreen one as well for xmas

Awww lona, what a shame, but there you go, at least you got your money back and a new tv, better safe than sorry after that.

Told you to get the other one!

What other one . I gave up black and white before you were born, Simon.

I can't remember where the thread was now, but I thought there was a choice between a Sony and a Philips?

You just can't get good mods these days.

Your right, Simon, but I don't think it was anything to do with Philips.  I think it was just our luck.  I was wondering if leaving the menu up on sky caused it to burn up as it is static. The thing is, I am not prepared to risk all that money if they are so temperamental.
