    TV pixelating

    Posted 27 April

    I used Checkatrde as my tv kept pixelating, a very nice a pleasant friendly man Sam from Sidcup came round yesterday and resolved the issue within 20 minutes. The tv pixilation was driving me mad, £80 was the charge for the service, which I thought was very reasonable and I would recommend Sam should you need any TV issues resolved, I have had a problem also with the sound on the TV and he has advised me how to fix the problem. 10 out of 10 Sam. Many thanks Russ (Beckenham)
