I'd like to have a moan at VM for mistakenly charging me an additional £75 on my monthly bill for the installation of a V+ box, BUT...upon ringing them they put the credit on this months bill and gave me a £20 goodwill payment.
How can I be expected to have a decent moan when they correct a mistake so quickly and decently.:)

I think you should start a new thread titled - Mistake by Virgin corrected in timely fashion.

I'd like to moan about VM not putting a man on the moon. Bloody hell the Americans did it 41 years ago and still VM haven't caught up. What are they playing at? :mad:

For the record I'm no VM fanboy and will complain about them when necessary. On the other hand you don't seem to be able to give them any credit whatsoever.

Tell me again when is Sky launching its 100meg service? ;)

Jesus m8 how many times. I posted on another thread that virgin's net and customer service are excellent, way ahead of sky IMO. However as far as tv service they are miles behind, supposed negotiations drag on and on, no clear advertising of what HD or CBS etc launching and when. Sky have way more channels that u would want HD for, don't care about itv2 tbh but it highlights yet again sky deliver more and quicker and let their customers know. If you genuinely think virgins tv service is anywhere near as good yer mental

I don't want to, don't u get it. All is great with virgin apart from tv, that is all I'm saying but for some reason u and others seem to refuse to see that despite the crystal clear evidence. Let me ask you a simple question. Do sky have way more tv channels, do they have more HD, do they get channels first, can you watch premier films when u want? Virgin have ESPN free but IMO that's the only upside. I want all my services with one provider and don't want upheaval of getting BT line etc, just want virgin to get the tv finger out and catch up and publicise what their plans are. Look I give up

The answer to all you questions - I don't care about any of them! If I did I would be on Sky TV!

If you don't like it then don't buy it. Cable tv is optional. If you don't like it then move on. If you want more HD then move on etc etc etc. I don't see why one provider is the be all and end all of your decision on tv. It actually is laughable you pay for a service you hate just so all your services can appear on the same bill.

I don't hate virgin I don't give an f about who provides my services I have no loyalty to any company. Mate glad your happy and the fact u didn't answer any of those questions sums it up. Would rather pay one bill than two that's just the way I am. Virgin do a good job in many ways buy sub standard in others, also going back to sky means taking time of work to get BT line in and Sky instalation. Just debate nothing personal m8
