Hi to all,

I just joined in. I found this site is really useful and cool.

I would like to ask the all the masters of technology a question:

After cancelling the virgin broadband service, there are a few things left behind: the cable, the modem, etc. How can I make use of the cable (the white one indoors that links the modem and the white virgin media box on the wall)? Do I have options like recycling, selling at a second-hand rate if there's anyone buying, etc.

Thanks a lot. Good day.

white cable has no real value, modem about £10. virgin wall box no real value

What a shame! Everything should have its value. Totally waste of resources!!!

People think it's cool that by paying as LITTLE as 35 quid they can get a brand-new kit in the fancy box, why bother??? oh yeah, why bother?

Equipment remains the property of Virgin Media and they may well come to pick it up
