Turned to RTÉ Radio Worldwide on MW 567 KHz by chance.

Turns out they were having a phone in discussion about leasehold properties where they signed contracts not allowing Satellite dishes anywhere outside the building itself.

People were having their dishes removed without them being in and men knocking on their doors, and then requesting €85 to get the dish back.

Funny thing was they seem to be only targeting Mini Dishes has one woman said there was a dish for broadband down the road.........

......All these houses are piped for c@ble

€85 - what a swizz. You can get them new for less than €50

The dishes were removed because they broke the terms of the contract, and then they were offered back. Hmm, I'll see you in court...
