Buying an Eurovox, connecting it to your virgin media plug or phoneline, and then moving to the smallest tv package.

If you get caught do you get your box taken off ya, fined or thrown in jail or executed

welcome to the site, please use search

covered a few times, eurovoxs are untraceable as no modems inside, so unless a cable guy comes to ur house and sees it, thats the only way they would know

first offence you will probably get off with crucifixion.

hehe thanks guys. The reason for my nic name is I'm disappointed with branson for his virgin media rubbish when the info quite often doesn't load and I have to restart my box.

Also the on demand constantly says please try later and even when it works it's slow. You would think he'd try to make it fast and smooth.

I bet he has sky in his house(s)
