Guest SydneySiderInSurrey Posted December 6, 2011 We recently moved from Australia to Surrey, UK and brought our Aussie flat screen TV with us thinking it would work here. But, sadly, we aren't able to change the country code and get it to work. So I am looking for someone here in the Surrey area that is planning to move to Australia and would like a free TV to put in their container. It's 2 years old and around 32" (if I remember correctly). We used it in our guest room. All you need to do is come by and pick it up. TVs are very expensive in Australia (we paid around $800 for it). I'm just hoping to save it from going to the dump. Please email me if you could use it jpowledge at gmail dot com Please feel free to move this message if I've put it in the wrong section of the forum. Thanks!

godfather 10 Posted December 6, 2011 Just get yourself a freeview box and it should work fine:smile: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bobbsy 777 Posted December 7, 2011 Yup. If you buy a Freeview box (or subscribe to Sky) and plug that into your TV, all will be well. The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity. -Dorothy Parker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest SydneySiderInSurrey Posted December 7, 2011 Thanks for the advice! Obviously I haven't done my homework on this issue. I've never even heard of freeview (we aren't big TV watchers). Anyway, I will give it a go and see if it works. If not, I did receive a message from someone who might be able to use it. So, either way, it won't end up in the tip! Thanks again, Jenny Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Pom Queen 5,785 Posted December 7, 2011 Good luck Jenny but like the others have said I am sure it will be fine. If you are depressed you are living in the past. If you are anxious you are living in the future. If you are at peace you are living in the present. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
