Cable Forum - General Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)

I think MB's DNPs are out of date.

A lot has come out in the press recently, so I'll be surprised if it's something that hasn't already been mentioned.

Or the sources are just stringing MB along, hope not though :-)

Keep up the good work everyone.

I still fail to understand why DNPs are sent to MB if he can't use them! I mean, what's the point?:confused::banghead:

I dropped my VM Tv package to the lowest tier, keeping the TIVO. I bagged myself a NowTV box, and have never looked back, I can dip in and out of pay TV as I want. I personally haven't missed a thing on the TV side, saved a small fortune and Got my Game of thrones season 6 already on catch up for tonight!.

DNP means DNP Old Boy unless you are not sure of what that means as MB cannot post until he is told otherwise.

So we now have the choice of believing your statement or the Telegraph article quoting one of Virgin Media's top people.

Personally, I would say it is most likely coming at the turn of the year. Unless, of course, the new Tivo is to be trialled from the summer... That could account for the discrepancy.

His integrity. Which is why his sources keep trusting him.

Oh, I get that Den, but that's not what I meant.

If they don't want information to be released, then why send it to Media Boy in the first place? Sounds perverse to me. What is to stop MB leaking it anyway?

Hey listen I wasn't having a go and sorry if it came across like that. I'm like others are just trying to get clarity. We have your sources saying it's coming before the olympics and have the senior guy saying its new year, so it's fustrating with different info. But I want to say I wasn't trying to be rude

I assumed that MB meant that there was no need to ask the source as s/he reads this thread as opposed to telling you off!
