    Had engineer over and said not my dish might be cable in the wall but cant touch the wall over the management company and they are not very good to deal with

    Could I get a mini sky dish and put discreetly on my balcony?

    You could, but the management company could take it down. I'm a director of our management company. There's no problem at all letting Sky fix these type of problems and we do it all the time. The only time we'd refuse to do it would be if the person was not paying their management fees. Get in touch with one of the directors in your complex.

    You'd need a south-facing aspect. You could mount the dish upside down and paint it to look like a small table or plant. http://www.satcure.co.uk/tech/disguise.htm

    Some developments have independent satellite companies who maintain their system. These are the guys who you would need to get in touch that being the case, not "Sky installers" who may not have any access to communal dishes and patch rooms (and shouldn't).

    To the OP, if you are renting, get onto your landlord. Finding the problem from one end of a cable to the other is fairly easy.
