Newest Review: ... what it said about ours. We bought an 18 element aerial and a signal booster - total cost about £30 - and now despite them saying we would not be able to get it we have perfect reception and can pick up all the channels. This is despite us living right on the edge of the transmission area. Another trick to do is if you know anyone that has this digi box is to borrow theirs to find out if it works. If you can pick up any channels but not all then do as in the paragraph above but if you cannot pick up anything then you would be wasting your money so wait until things improve or go for an alternative. The digibox is only about one and a h... more

Premium Review ITV Digital: Pay once only digi box (533 words)

This is no longer called ITV digital. It is now called Digital Terrestrial Receiver. Ours is a Goodmans one which costs around £70 but shop around as the price does vary considerably. We did see the same for £100. We got ours from Argos and they were the cheapest around. Once you have bought the box though that is it. You do not have extra monthly payments. The first thing to do though when you are thinking of buying a digibox is to see if it is compatable with where you are living. There is a number and www site you can go on and put your post code in to find this out. Now if it says no to your area do not give in. That is what it said ...  Read the complete review

There doesn?t seem to be much point in writing in this category. You all know by know ITV Digital, what used to be On Digital has put on his monkey night eye shades, flung its? knitted paw back in the air and said its? final A GOOD A NIGHT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. Go to http://www.se-tv.co.uk, look at the Munkeh tribute and weep. How can the world's best advert ever, be associated with such a flop? I suppose we could see something coming. Since Christmas the ads kind of disappeared. Later, after the company went bust, it was found like everybody else, football clubs, and Interactive Millionaire keyring winners to be owed money. Monkey went without crisps. I should ...  Read the complete review

I sit here laughing in the face of all those who went and bought the digi box that offered great tv with no minidish! So the government wants to turn off analogue do they well they won't get the opportunity with substandard products being offered off as new age technology, no in fact we've had the technology for ages its just its crap compared to the sky digital alternative. Yes is certain minidishes are the future, there is no turning back now the competition to sky just fell flat on their arse owing loads of money to football which coincidentally are now going to have to beg sky to give it any money for the crap games it offers! The home of football ...  Read the complete review

..because ITV Digital are a lot in trouble. I must admit, ITV Digital has had a rocky ride in my time. At first, I thought it was a complete rip-off of NTL Digital and Sky Digital, offering less channels for a greater premium price. However, I was extremely desperate for digital TV, but encountered some problems with the rival companies. Firstly Sky Digital offered a satellite service, satellites that aren't allowed in my area of 'culture' (I hate Shakespeare!). Secondly, NTL Digital didn't offer the digital service in my area, even though they spent pretty much the whole of the previous year digging up trenches outside my house. After a visit into ...  Read the complete review

I must confess I probably wouldn’t have written this opinion if not for the lively debate on 606 last night and Blackjane’s opinion posted this morning. I am of course writing about the current saga concerning ITV Digital. I must stress that everything in this opinion is straight off my head and open to correction. I have no legal knowledge and I’m not looking to ‘diss’ anyone. I aim to provide a simple overview of what’s been going on, what might happen and what this will mean for the ‘proper’ football clubs of this country. The problem itself is endemic to the greedy and overpriced world of football (another ...  Read the complete review
