Thanks. Was it no to both 4G and TV3? I put these on the same line in error.

I totally agree although two smaller and price-driven virtual networks - Asda and TalkTalk do not have 4G offerings yet. I'm sure Sky will offer 4G when it launches its mobile service next year so VM must offer 4G soon.

Must have missed that.

I have a feeling that you might be asked to help put up the Cable forum decorations for Christmas 2016- best to keep 30 November free :D :D

Its actually ALL VM TV customers, not just M+ upward. It was a post from someone with TV M querying the new channels they found on the VM community forum that made me chase it up with the forum team.

Things for 2016.
It's not impossible that VM and Liberty Global will combine or establish an alliance in Europe. The FT today has this evening published an article which effectively says don't rule it out under the headline "Vodafone leaves door ajar to striking a deal with Liberty Global"

Where was this confirmed? Have checked the Extreme TV facebook, Twitter and website and there is no mention it is closing.
