In other words, 'coming soon'. Why is everything from VM 'coming soon'?

So, one person believes the spin then.



Sky have anounced full coverage that will please all their subscribers right off the bat from the BBC anouncement. It is inept of VM to leave their customers wondering if they will get the same full coverage, particularly non Tivo customers, who at this point in time will only get a small amount of extra coverage. And Tivo customers, as it stands, won't be able to record events whilst they are at work.

How can that be anything other than really bad public relations?

They got it right when they announced that. But that was then; this is now. The game has now been changed by Sky and VM need to keep up. They can't live on past stratergies when the game has taken on a new direction.

TBH this seems like frustration of other areas of VM and not specifically the Olympics?

Because it took Sky 3 months after VM's announcement to make theirs. Until this point the coverage on VM was superior.

Indeed. However, that fact seems to have been ignored by a few die-hard serial complainers.

I do NOT care what Sky does ,has, or wont let Virgin show.

I want a box that offers the full range of services that the BBC offer.

I also would like that box to have at least the services that were on the older model. which it is being hyped as the great replacement of.

I also do not want to be fobbed off with either "its come soon" ," its not our fault", or wait & see. :mad:
Its that really to MUCH to ask.

No it's not that simple. VM offer many things that Sky can't hold a candle to at the moment. But Sky offer superior TV and their phone service is better value. What makes that a simple choice?

Just because a person thinks that overall VM offers a better service than Sky and chooses them over Sky, doesn't mean that person shouldn't critisize things that VM should improove on. Afterall, someone from VM may start to listen if enough people complain. In fact to not complain about things that they think VM are doing wrong would make them a VM fanboy, and that would be wrong.
