Forced to pay £35
Hello all,
I was all set to move over to BT from Virgin but something is annoying me! I want to have 2 boxes for recording on and am prepared to pay the extra £5 per month and the £99 for the extra box. However BT are insisting that an engineer needs to come and install the second box at a cost of £35 because it needs to be connected to my router. They seem perfectly happy for me to connect my first box myself but insist on an engineer visit if I want two boxes. I really don't want a stranger laying a cable from my router to my bedroom when I am perfectly capable of making the connection myself and I don't want to waste £35. Does anyone know why they insist on this? Is there anyway around it? Thanks for any help Ian |

Why tell us about it though?
https://community.bt.com/t5/YouView-...5/td-p/1447326 I'm sure the BT Youview forum will sort it out for you, if it can be sorted out. Good luck with that! |

Just ask straight up what exact ally they intend to do, if it's something you can do then tell them to jog on. |
