FREE Chord HDMI Active (1.5m)

[Big Aura]

hmmmm ... I haven't even got that email, and no reply to my chaser email on Monday.

In other news...

What exactly is a Deputy Supervisor? Is that the person who works under (and is presumably supervised by) the supervisor and also supervises others? Or does she/he deal with supervising deputies only?

These are the important questions of our age.

Sigh... You're definitely on the list to get a cable, and your email was forwarded from Andrew to subscriptions as well. Not sure why you're missing the delights of an email from a Dep Super.... You will get your cable, I promise - I am being an utter nagging hellhound on the matter

I told you we'd been nagging

Fingers-crossed you're cabled up by mid-week....

 

[The_Lhc]

Here's hoping I haven't finished watching all my new Blu-Rays by then!

Lets hope you have finished watching em all as then you can re-watch them again with your new HDMI cable & see if you notice any differences in quality !

I've had the Tony email too. Hurrah!

Thanks Clare and Andrew - looks like I should have it just before I get the player!

I still haven't received my cable. As it's 15 working days since my cable left the warehouse, I've email Dan Handy again asking him to escalate this to Royal Mail.

I wonder if I'll receive it before Christmas....

i got 2 confusing emails 1 sent friday said that they had got some more cables in & i would being getting 1 sent to me on monday 7th dec, next day i got an email telling me that they were getting an order of cables in over the next couple of weeks & 1 would be put by for me so a bit confused what to think. this is all a bonus to me now as i had given up asking what had happned to it. so thanks to everyone who sorted it out if it does turn up.

Is there any chance WHF will run the offer again ,or make it a standard optional subscription gift choice?

I would certainly take up the offer

Seemed like a polite and reasonable question

Obviously not

Season of goodwill lost at WHF

Andrew was only joking - hence the emoticon at the end!

We're always looking at a range of subscription offers, but - as Andrew was intimating - until we can be sure our new subscriptions arrangements are working smoothly, we're unlikely to re-run the campaign just yet.

Indeed, that's exactly how it was meant...

Andrew's blog here covers off the Chord Active HDMI very well, though - as ever - your eyes and ears are the most important to please!

Glad you've got your cable, and your issue - hope you enjoy both

wired the chord cable up from my sky hd to sony 40w2000 tv replacing qed hdmi-p cable. asked the girlfriend does the tv picture look any differant from yesterday, her answer " year it does'nt look as sharpe". i think the picture is getting better as my system as warmed up, so she will be dragged back in the doom for another look in a minute. think i'll be looking into mains cables next

 

[The_Lhc]

JOY!!!! It arrived last night, so I replaced the cheap Pure cable I was using with the blu-ray player... and then didn't watch anything!

I did stick the Pure cable on the SkyHD box, to replace the free one, colours seemed a little more vivid on QI perhaps but to be honest I wasn't paying much attention, was busy replacing my cue tip and finishing off the QI Book of the Dead (very interesting, if you like potted biographies).

Anyway, many thanks for getting this resolved, persistance paid off finally!

PS. anyone else slightly disappointed with the size of the bulge, I thought it'd be bigger...

the_lhc: PS. anyone else slightly disappointed with the size of the bulge, I thought it'd be bigger... worrying comment!

Still waiting meself, maybe tomorrow, or perhaps it'll be there this evening.
