    You're right I remove a splitter and they came back. I think there must be a weak signal to the house here. In my old house everyting was great and split feeds didn't cause a problem.
    What is your mate going to do? I was thinking of chopping the main feed in garden so they'd have to come out and repair/renew it. Would that help or is it something in the box that feeds the street that needs fixing? or maybe the blue/grey box on the wall outside my front room?

    Try an amplifier. Although not a perfect solution it may do the trick.

    Dont try cutting the cable. Chances are VM will bill you to repair it.

    Don't know if the policy is the same now but when I had NTL installed over my old house years ago they dug the garden up and put the cable in. The fitter said they repair it free of charge if you damage it. If they didn't I'd point out that sky doesn't have a cable under my lawn to damage
