My response was in regard to new tv box mate.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

With virgin media we never know. Channels can launch at start or with exclusive deals can take 3 years. It also comes down to new carriage deals and when they are due.

Sadly this is what happens and it affect sky customers as well, I think on sky it's a £3.50 increase but i could be wrong on this

Anymore info on the software update

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

I expect CNN is not part of a deal but has just paid market rates for the EPG slots and satellite capacity.

The Sky price increases are detailed in a table at the end of this article:

Imo with bt now offering 55mbs on their infinity1 as a entry point vm need to start rethinking their prices, although vm is still cheaper than BT BT do provide much faster upload speeds on their entry fibre product and now faster download too.
BT upgraded my speeds today although i had to recontract but i kept the discount.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

l would not touch BT with a bargepole but that's only my opinion as others might think differently.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

Same here Den , had nothing but bad experiences with BT going back over many years.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

I'm the same regarding vm i was going to resign up to vm but remembered way i was treated by them so decided not too.
So far not had any probs with BT.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

Same here with Sky; I would genuinely do without pay television if they were the only provider and have used various methods to stop others from signing up too. They thought they were being clever; but it's cost them much, much more in the long run over the past 15 years.

I suppose it just shows that it depends which member of staff you get as to how it's dealt with.

I will never let Sky make a profit out of me again after the way I was treated following a bereavement, i've never had a problem with BT and have had some problems with VM which were quickly resolved by senior management.

To weed out the bad staff, perhaps companies should monitor who dealt with the customer (and how it was dealt with) in the period leading up to any cancellation??

I believe there is also a Sky UHD test up also.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

We only saw tests for CNN HD.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

But does this really matter as this is for virgin media not what is coming or testing on sky
