Eurovox - Can cable turn the siganl off

Hi, i am new to this but i really need help, i want to get a eurovox, i have borrowed one from a friend that i know works but when i plug it into my cable from the wall all it says is no signal. The cable is telewest, i have only just moved into this house so can the cable company turn off the signal that comes into your house or is it always live?
i hope someone out there can help me. Thanks in advance!

 

Sounds like you line is disconnected, just subscribe to the basic package.

 

thanks a lot, thought so, seen your other replies, you know your sh#t!!

 

Is there any way of switching it back on myself or is it literaly a switch they have to flick?

 

if only mate

 

stupid question can u plug coaxial into wrong socket?

 

cact what was that about, the question is quite valid???

 

same problem as starview with no signal issue and as i will not go near a eurovox

 

What?? Has that got to do with the OP's query?

 

he was saying he had a no signal issue and wondered if he plugged into wrong hole,as i dont know eurovox,hence my post lol

 

Sorry now I see what you mean apologies. The OP meant they had no signal in regards to their feed been disconnected. Most times on a VM connection it is probably just disconnected at the external omni box, which is easily fixed. If it is disconnected at the cab it can also be fixed but I dont recommend messing around in the cab as it is CC owned.

 

i will keep keep quiet on eurovox then lol,and do u have any info on imac flashing?

 

was getting confused meself there cact being saturday in all tought you where on the gargle lol

 

t total no use of beer only use beer for slug traps lol,happy slugs

 

hmmmm heres a happy slug then lol

 

thanks again, i know it was a stupid question but just hoped there was a loop hole so i didnt need to sign up for cable.... just me bein tight!!

 

not a stupid question, unfortunately even if there was a way we could not discuss it

 

hi mate,how are you connecting to the internet at your home address? if its via a cable company,then you are already connected and you do not need a a basic tv package,maybe you should look at the little box just outsisde your house,sometimes they are dissconnected by the previous owner ( mine was )

 

hi i am using mobile broadband, i have been tempted to take a look at the box but doubt any of it will make sense to me!!
