I'm just going by what I've heard on the grapevine and haven't received that email - but informing customers of various changes several months after they happened doesn't seem to be very useful.

Getting tired of the trolling in this topic. If you are just posting to be a richard, stop.
Any more will see the members suspended from the topic [repeat offenders from the site] grow up.

So it doesn't stay at Ch153 it gets an even worse position...and yet nothing is earmarked for Ch153. :confused:

Exactly what I was thinking. Unless Cordbusters have just assumed that it will use the same slot as ITVBe +1 used in Scotland. Very strange if they paid more for a better slot only to end up with a worse one in Scotland.

Virgin do seem to like to keep gaps in the 140s.

Can a Virgin Media worker confirm where 5USA will be in Scotland from Tuesday?

You can PM me if you do not want your name to be use on this thread.

I get annoyed when they seem to move your favourite channels every 6 months.

With TV 360 and a profile, moving the channels around has no effect. Your chosen order stays the same.

That’s right. If you want sophistication, you need the up to date technology and move on from your old faithful ways of the past.

Some people deal with change better than others. I’ve never looked back with my 360 box. Those initial problems people were talking about have disappeared.

So it doesn't have those horrid big pictures and heavy reliance on picture tiles on the user interface anymore then OB?
