David I wouldnt think so, the charge for pay events is stored in the box then dialled through, there was a system of getting around it by placing a 9v battery across two of the terminals for the phone socket, did it work --- Yes, but only until you re connected the phone as it would then ring up and charge you anyhoo!! I've got rid of SKy as I cant bring myself to pay them for repeats when theres enough to watch on Freeview!! |
