They'll more than likely void your insurance if the box is damaged....

+ I know co-op offer it and at a good price as I work for them lol

they do frequent checks on the box for feed back etc so i would reckon if the signal goes down it will flash up on there system and youll be getting a phone call and as far as i know they cant do it on novas etc as it needs all the computors (what a shame) lol

Probably not the best thing to ask on a public forum, admitting insurance fraud.
