If anyone feels safe enough to cancel their contract with BritishTvAbroad due to TV signals now being received from Telmicro.
You can cancel your direct debits if you have them set up via paypal.
I did something similar the other week, remember it was a lot of messing about to find where and how to do it, but it can be done.
As for the notice period of cancellation. IMO not worth the paper its printed on. Print the contract on some tissues and I have never had any online company have the audacity to try that.
So just cancel then let them try and bluff you with legal threats, from more fictitious solicitors.
After all, what country would they try and prosecute you in? The UK, your not residents, if they try Spain, they will incur legal costs, flights, hotel and travel costs.

Why I Love...Red Dwarf
A long time ago (well, in 1988) on a sound stage far, far away, one of the funniest and most charming British sitcoms of all time was born. Yes, it's hard to believe that it's been more than 20 years since Red Dwarf first appeared, but 2009 sees the show's coming of age commemorated with the first official on-screen reunion since 1999.
I'm really excited by the prospect of watching some new Red Dwarf. Not because I've been anxiously awaiting the long-delayed motion picture (I haven't), but because it'll be great to see the show's characters interacting with one another for what might be the final time.
When I was at university my friends and I discovered upon moving in together that we were totally analogous to the crew of Red Dwarf. There was a Lister, a Rimmer, a Kryten, a bizarrely accurate Holly (more Norman Lovett than Hattie Hayridge, alas) and a Cat. We tried running through a host of other sitcoms to see if we resembled any other comedy ensembles, but nothing worked as well as Red Dwarf.
It's possible I'm so fond of the series because I associate it with what were probably the happiest days of my life. We felt like a family in that house, and a family is ultimately what Red Dwarf's characters are. There's Holly, the dad with the voice of experience; Kryten, the fastidious but eternally loving and patient mum; Lister, the dropout older brother; Rimmer, the snooty but neurotic teenage sister and Cat, the happy infant.
And so it was for us. If there was cooking to be done on board Starbug it was up to Kryten to keep the crew fed; in our house, Ed was the one charged with deploying the whisk. Mike, with his knack for improving morale, was Holly. Bill, who got on with everyone and could polish off lager by the lakeful, made an apt Lister. Benj, with his quails' eggs and theatre-going, was our Rimmer, and it fell to yours truly to play the Cat, as the vainest and most self-obsessed housemate.
It's because these characters are all so recognisable and fully rounded that Red Dwarf is deserving of classic status. Rob Grant and Doug Naylor, the show's creators, grew up together as best friends and I think it's the qualities that their relationship brought to the writing of the show that make Red Dwarf really special. It's not about space adventures, it's about friendship. That's why I love Red Dwarf and that's why I'm so pleased to see my friends back on TV again.
Red Dwarf: Back to Earth premiered on Friday 10 April at 9:00pm on Dave. For preview photos, visit our Red Dwarf section.
Red Dwarf was on when I was between the ages of nine and twenty, and I adored it. Now I'm thirty, and I'm more excited about the new episodes than it is surely healthy for a 30-year old to be. After a slow, but enjoyable, start last night, tonight's episode was amazing. Absolutely hilarious and mindblowing.

EastEnders
Men - can't live with them, can't shoot them. Or so they say. The shocking way Phil's behaving - abusing Shirley, Heather, Ben, birthday boy Billy, a mute Tracey and indeed anyone in the way of his next drink - means he may well find himself in someone's crosshairs. Again. And all because he's fallen out with his mummy. Charming Tamwar and Zainab, Syed is trying to get back into his dad's good books with little success - though his progress into Janine's boudoir goes infinitely better. Strumpet. Him, not her, that is. Now where did I put that Taser?
Coronation Street
Birthday parties can be fraught affairs (see also weddings, funerals, family dinners and chance encounters in the street), so Colin's 70th should be approached with caution. And a riot shield. Alas, Rita's feeling rather reckless and has even got a new rinse in her hair for the occasion. (Belle Color's Old Boiler copper, if you're interested.) Colin's always been a bit creepy, like an overly attentive scout leader, and a revelation from Paula stuns his daughter Eileen. I assume a doggy bag is out of the question? Elsewhere, Steve and Becky start
dating, on account of missing out when they were cheating on Michelle; Fiz visits John in prison again; and Ken, pining for Martha, offers to take Deirdre away. And they say romance is dead.
Emmerdale
You can't rely on anyone to disappoint you any more. Years after dramatically absconding in a sea plane, having fleeced Sadie King, Cain Dingle returns - and he's acting like he's never been away. No wonder poor Debbie's so confused, sexually and otherwise. Still, with her dad back - and no doubt mum Charity destined to reappear, perhaps from the belly of a UFO - Debbie has another ally in her fight for baby Sarah. With Victoria to manipulate and Maisie and Andy to antagonise, it's as if all the Dingles' Christmasses have come at once. Of course, it's Sarah I feel sorry for. Is it possible to have your DNA fumigated?
Hollyoaks
Music, warbled Madonna, makes the people come together. Evidently she's never been to Hollyoaks, where a stolen kiss across the DJ's decks drives Leila and Elliot further apart and the search for a singer for The Somethings causes cacophony between Rhys and Josh. Play nicely, boys! Or, y'know, don't. After ructions turn to a fracas, the disharmony is almost comparable to that between Carmel and Calvin. Though a reconciliation might be in the offing, it may be scuppered by rum doings at the Loft, doings in which another Valentine plays a pivotal role.
The Archers by Alison Graham
Now that Brenda is about to leave Ambridge, Tom is forced to consider the reality of his single, Brenda-less life. Poor Tom; his is a tale of woe on an almost Shakespearean scale, or so you would think to hear him go on, the tiresomely selfish, porcine-obsessed bore. Brenda, you have devoted a chunk of your adult life to this whiny little creep - go now, save yourself.
Elsewhere, Borsetshire's Tony Soprano, evil Chalkman, steps up his campaign to make Matt and Lilian a bit scared (come on, you don't expect either of them to swim with the fishes do you, this is Ambridge, not New Jersey). There's more bad news for Matt when he learns he's about to be thrown off the board of Borsetshire Land.
And Usha, or Smugsha, as I prefer, (was ever a woman so self-satisfied after marriage?) faces the Felpersham Marathon and her nemesis, that femme fatale Annabelle, who surely sounds as if she runs marathons in kitten heels and Tiffany diamonds while barely breaking a sweat on her dainty, Dior-powdered brow.

Are you as excited as we are about The Doctor's upcoming Easter adventure (Saturday 11 April, 6:45pm), Planet of the Dead? Want to know more about it? Well, Radio Times reviewer Mark Braxton has seen it, and had this to say:
"The Time Lord seems to have met his match in the chic, catsuited Lady Christina. As the naughty aristocrat, Michelle Ryan is given quite an entrance here, diving like Tom Cruise in Mission: Impossible into a Fort Knox-style museum to steal a priceless artefact. Evading the police, she meets the Doctor on board a London bus, and as getaway vehicles go, it's unbeatable. A wormhole opens up, transporting the double-decker and its frightened passengers into a world of sand."
"Planet of the Dead is a giddy mix of the exotic (chirruping fly men with flicky mandibles) and the provincial, the gags are great and the rippling orange dunes look fantastic. For now at least it's as much Doctor Feelgood as Doctor Who - funny, sunny and as British as the flag. Hold very tight, please!"
Yes, it's been too long since we had any new Who. Are you looking forward to getting your Easter fix with Planet of the Dead? Leave a comment below and let us know…
Meanwhile, don't forget to check out our dedicated Planet of the Dead section, which features extensive photo galleries.
The Apprentice: Week Six

Q: What do you call someone who patronises you, lies to your face, then pretends to be your mate?
A: An estate agent.
Yes, Philip really lived up to the high standards set by his profession this week as he lead Ignite in a task to value and sell a collection of items ranging from a plastic skeleton to a valuable Indian rug.
First, he refused to entertain Lorraine's idea that, y'know, maybe they should actually check that the rug wasn't worth anything before dismissing it. Then, when it turned out she was right, he denied that she'd ever mentioned it. And finally, when the team were celebrating a miraculous win, he came over all pally and even had the temerity to tip her a wink like the wide boy he is.
Philip doesn't seem to have cottoned on to the fact that he is on a television programme and that everything he says and does is being filmed. "You've hardly mentioned the rug," he told Lorraine. Phil, she's on camera saying it. Nineteen times.
It's a real shame Philip didn't get the boot because then he would have had to go on You're Fired! and watch replays of his lies in front of a studio audience, and be subjected to interrogation and mocking insults from a panel of ruthless business people and comedians. At least he was made to squirm in front of Sir Alan, who - hopefully - has now seen him for what he is. And at least, thanks to motherly Margaret, there was vindication for Lorraine.
Meanwhile, despite an uncharacteristically feisty turn in the boardroom, six weeks of hiding in a corner finally caught up with Nooral. He didn't deserve to go based on this task but I can live with it because the rules of the game have kept him out of the boardroom in previous weeks when he's been useless.
So, yes, it's been a week of comeuppances - and they saved the best for last. Earlier on, as he took charge of Empire, Ben - the Sandhurst military academy scholar who never went to Sandhurst - ramped up the macho posturing to the level of pure fantasy: "In those situations where I am under extreme pressure - ie, heavy gunfire, explosions going off around me, people getting injured - that's when I can bring a team together, that's when I can lead."
Eight hours and one failed task later, the usually mild-mannered James offered a more accurate assessment of Ben's abilities: "You come in here going 'Oh, I'm strong, I can fight anyone, get rid of the weakest link… blah blah blah', and in reality you've showed that you're totally spineless and you sh*t your pants!"
Aaaaah! In your face! Ben looked a broken man, the fight all gone out of him. And James has just won a million credibility points. To his existing list of credentials (enthusiasm, fairness, sea shanty composition) James can now add one more attribute that will come in handy in business - total badass!
I really want James to win now, I think it may have been Margaret who said a few weeks ago that actually he is pretty good, but just gets flustered in the boardroom.
Regarding his well-deserved outburst at Ben however, maybe he could have used a better phrase than "you sh*t your pants!" considering what he has revealed about his own unfortunate boardroom experience!
I think it will be interesting to see how Philip behaves next week, as even I, a long-tie defender was embarrased by him last night. He's still miles better than Ben though.
