Cable Forum - General Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 1.

Your not the only one mate. Lucky ITV are showing the other match on ITV1. Hopefully VM will get the channels up and running before next week's return leg.

It would help if VM gave the reason why no ITV 2/3/4 HD launched today

However nowhere did I suggest that VM should pay over the odds to obtain the channel , in fact I've said many times on here they shouldn't I was merely pointing out that Sky's core business is TV and as such they use Atlantic as a way of attracting and retaining customers in much the same way as VM use their TIVO exclusivity and Fibre BB to help attract and retain customers

whilst i am dissapointed the itv hd channels have not arrived today,Clearly by the annouchment this morning from vm mb`s info was correct(thanks mb).At least vm have aknowledged there is a problem.Vm cant to do right for some people if they hadnt said anything people would complain there was no info,Clearly they are coming but there is a problem it could be vm it could be itv they certainly dont have to justify everything.For the last 12 months we have been waiting hoping they would turn up least we know they are on the way,Who knows maybe there are more channels now launching at same time(universal hd?)whatever the situation come on peeps give them a break

Ah, but being a Sunderland fan you don't need to put up with standard definition ITV4.

My mates Mrs works in accounts at Granada TV, apparently the reason that ITV 2,3,4 HD have not launched today is that Virgin Media have tried post dating the cheque till September, this sort of stuff goes on all the time with 10 bob companys.
