Is Chorus Digital worth the risk?

I used chorus for a year - the worst service I ever had..not to mention the fact that half the channels were not available in my area for some technical reason - jokers and wasters.

Why you would want to switch for utv aka tv3 I don't know - and apart from the odd documentary is there really anything on c4 that you don't get on e4 or other channels?

Don't bother , not worth the hassle.

I moved into a new house in Swords a couple of years ago and the connected all the houses up without even asking. Then they had the cheak to send me a bill.

I told them where to stick their crappy service pretty sharpish.

A chours know nothing.They know nothing what there offering and at wha price.If you call them up trying to avail of one of their offers you may often have to explain their own offer to them.The only reason one would want their services is the price of them.I have chours broadband,its good no probelms with it and its only 29.95 per month.Just dont switch from the Very Good High Class Provider to the Poor Provider.
