[QUOTE="italiastar, post: 111401, member: 193052"] I bought one of these systems last year and in all honesty it was great whilst it worked. What frustrated me was that the dish looked like a plastic dustbin lid, but worked perfectly with the exception of very heavy rain, which I thought was excellent. I'm in south London and I picked up Hotbird perfectly and could do the same with Astra. I was very pleased with this kit. Unfortunately, just before Christmas it Blew up, literally! Lidl could only offer a refund, after returning it to the store and waiting 2 weeks for a cheque. Their authorised repairer was not answering the phone, and not responding to e-mail - in fact the e-mail box was full. Eventually he responded after 8 weeks and offered to replace the reciever - however this was 8 weeks too late as I'd already bought another one. This is the response I got when I told him this - [color=Navy] Quote: [i] Dear Sir, There are always customers like you no matter what we do we could never fulfil your requests. I pride my self in the service I give and give a service to lidl customers which I believe is far better than there competition. But there will always be customers like yourself who will always complain and no matter what we do to help will always continue to complain expecting something for nothing. Thank god I am an independent service. [/i][/color] My advice is get a proper one like a Technomate, Humax etc. If you're in the south of the UK a Sky minidish should work fine - mine is perfect - even in heavy rain! [/QUOTE]
