Yep. It's just sheer laziness in not checking things properly. There should have been at least a few people check that the details were correct before that went live. But companies today are very slapstick in general.

Was talking to someone from the CEO's office today and they were saying there is a new superhub coming out soon, also the new tivo has had all the testing done and should be getting rolled out soon, 6 tuners and able to watch a 7th programme

The only change due for broadband kit is that the Hub 3.0 colour is changing from white to black, once the existing white ones run out. From a hardware perspective they are both exactly the same.

There is no option to choose a colour or swap from one to the other.

I don't get that, I STILL (several weeks on) get the "Hear Ye! Hear Ye! We've made Virgin TV service new and improved with fewer menus". Yeah, Hear You this, thanks for taking away the Blue button that I used everyday and for making Tivo much slower and more convoluted and thanks for the constant C501 errors too, now I can't access MyShows and play my recordings and thanks for one more price hike before I say, "SEE YAA!" once and for all.

Well I raised the price hike issue with a store manager and he says we can now only allow one price hike a year and we had ours on XL in February and a 2nd one in November is unethical

Which store manager and why are two price rises 'unethical'?

If Virgin have to pay more (eg for content) then they have to pass that on in a price rise. It's up to every one of us to ensure that we get value for money. If it doesn't work out, you can change your package, change your provider, go for a mix of providers or make do with Freeview.

The choice is ours.

Indeed people have a choice and as Stephen has done they have made that choice on what they think is best for them and their family in terms of value.

Is that an auto-correct issue and your post should actually say "Amazon Prime TV app on its way to VM customers?" ;)

After VMs recent behaviour i think it's safe to say you can forget about vm ever having AMC/AMCHD.
