Our Philosophy (on the products we stock)
Mail Order Sales (including Delivery Charges)
I like this picture so much it`s also on the Poles and Brackets page (where an explanation is provided) but it sums up the differing qualities of products in this trade better than anything. Unfortunately the same disparity in quality also applies to aerials and cable etc.
ATV are obsessed with quality and we only sell the best products, better quality than most aerial installers use in fact. I hate all that built in obsolescence manufactured down to a price crap, so we don`t sell it.
If you want a flimsy aerial or pole, go to Argos or Screwfix.....
Whilst we do not give cash refunds on aerials or accessories
we are happy to exchange/swap/upgrade any product *.
* provided it is returned in a saleable condition).
Mail Order Sales All major credit/debit cards accepted, including Access.
We can supply most of our product range “Online” or phone your
order through to 0114 2854254 (Mon to Sat 9.00 AM to 5.30 PM)
Customers who are unsure of what they require or needing specific delivery requests may find it more appropriate to phone their order through.

However, orders which can be sent by post are not subject to supplements.

Orders are usually shipped within 24 hours (M-
but same day despatch is not normally guaranteed. If your order is urgent (and we`re contacted before 12 noon) we can often send it out “same day” if you specifically request this.
Please note that same day despatch is sometimes problematic on a Monday !
Please note all deliveries made by carrier (TNT) will usually require a signature
and they are made Monday to Friday. Many customers find it more convenient
to have their order delivered to their work address and in our experience
there tend to be fewer problems with deliveries to businesses.
If delivery is not made within three working days please contact us.
Deliveries are usually made in the morning but this can be ensured for an additional £6
for before 12.00 deliveries, or an additional £12.50 for before 10.00 deliveries.
Similarly deliveries on a Saturday are an additional £14.
If the package is damaged and you are in any doubt as to the condition of the order,
please refuse delivery and it will be returned to us for reshipment.
