....not really.

He has just proven the point that I was making the other day that the way the sports channels are now organised is confusing.

He only had to check his TV guide, or the VM website in a bit more detail to find the answer.

I have just got off the phone - after an HOUR, with CS. They could not tell me.

I have the SSpackage and pay for the package, BUT cannot get the HD channels, and yet according to there website - we now have the HD channels Free.

The BT HD channels are free.

The Sky Sports & Movies HD channels are £7 extra, as they have always been. Where do you think it says they are free?

Maybe this caused confusion

http://my.virginmedia.com/customer-n...l-numbers.html

"We've recently added some fantastic new channels to the Virgin line-up. If you subscribe to the Sky Sports package, you'll get Sky Sports 3 HD, Sky Sports 4 HD, and Sky Sports F1 HD included in your package and all at no extra cost!."

No mention of having to have SKY Premium HD and no mention of having to pay £7.00. Clearly states if you subscribe to SKY Sports you get the new HD channels.

I took the subscription offer Friday, asked the CS man if the deal included the HD channels twice each time he asked another and can back with a yes answer. Promised that the changes would be up in 24 hours, time now well over with no HD channels showing up. I'll give them a call in the morning and keep you updated. I was basing questions on your quote as well

Wonder if this is the deal which could lead to Amazon Instant launching on TiVo?

After all it's not a secret the 2 companies have been in talks for a few months:

The thing is, Vince, that we now have the majority of the channels we wanted. There is only one decent channel (that will remain nameless - shhhh!) that we don't have, so this year is not going to be a patch on last year! I really think the emphasis now will be on streaming services, although Mr Malone's recent activities may indicate that the content war will resume in the not too distant future!

As I posted here (post 141) Mr Malone's current ambitions appear to go beyond content.

If that doesn't work, get in touch with them via Twitter. I did last year when they promised me something and it never happened, so they gave me the channels for free for 6 months.

I have Sky Atlantic on Sky - and to be honest I've only founds 2-3 series that ever looked good. Started to watch them and found them terrible.

Personal choice - but If Sky said we are going to remove a Sky branded channel from your line-up, pick which one you prefer us to remove - I would say "Sky Atlantic".
