Just signed up online.

Weird but when I called they said £9 but online it states £7 per box :confused:

Hey ho....

Now I am waiting for it to be activated!

Mine are all working fine, but only after a call to CS this morning (about 10am).
The channels were assigned to my account but the message on screen stated that I was not subscribed....they simply sent a "signal" to my box...a quick re-boot and everything was fine.
Great quality....
I think £7 per month is good value....I watch lots of movies & all the football....
I suppose the £7 charge is worth it to some, not for others...
Personally I'm happy to pay for the amount of programmes available.

Agree, I am an avid sports follower and think back to the good old days of £12.99/£14.99 per match on prem plus....suddenly £7 a month for all the HD1 AND HD2 matches PLUS movies seems like a good deal ;)

VM always say up to 24 hours just to cover themselves hopefully in your case it will be a lot quicker then that.

When i have changed packages in the past its always only been at the most a couple of hours.

I'm glad now that I've downgraded my tv to one box for the bedroom on the M+ package and gone with Sky HD for downstairs as I now have all the Movies and Sport in HD and don't have to pay the £12 a month per box HD (£7 premium HD plus £5 V+HD charge) with VM which would go up to £14 a month, that's much more than Sky.

I changed my mind from Friday

Ordered the SKY HD Package at 1030 on Mon 2/8 for £7

Running on my Samsung V+ at 1300

The picture quality looks good
