Bloody disgrace that this event isn't being shown on free to air.Comment

It hasn't been on free to air since 2008, and then we had to put up with adverts in the race.
Surely you contractors can afford Sky? If you've chosen not to have it then you've chosen not to see the Monaco GP live, so why are you moaning?Will work inside IR35. Or for food.Comment

Not to mention that their customer service was tulipe and the boxes tended to fail willy nilly. They initially charged me £90 to have some bloke come around and plug a box into an existing dish. I got through five boxes in three years because their cheap tulipty power supplies kept failing. Three of those failed in the same week and all were second hand ones that had been previously repaired. One of them had the repair sticker over the ventilation holes where the fan was and lasted less than an hour. And this was after I had to threaten to leave in order to get a new one out of them, initially they expected me to pay it!
