[QUOTE=RichardCoulter;35704899]Thanks :)



I can't understand why anyone would regularly come into a thread that they clearly have no time for, it's beginning to look like your sole purpose is to cause upset and disruption through the use of negativity and rudeness. There are many threads on this forum that I am not interested in, so I simply don't bother with them. I certainly don't go in and try to diminish the enjoyment of others that are interested in said threads.

In the hope of getting facts NOT fairy tales. Still little boys & little toys !

the question is will they withhold it

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2
 

Good question dave42 but have no idea.going by past examples then yes they will but virgin and sky have just signed a new new contact so they might of got it included.fingercrossed

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2
 

The people they know might be, but they're not. They merely pass on information from others in good faith. Whatever anyone says about it, we probably wouldn't all be here if they didn't!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2
 

Ahh I Get it. Like D-Day veterans you mean? :rolleyes::erm::confused:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2
 

If indeed these people work for Virgin & have boardroom level information do you REALLY think it would be passed on to the likes of MB :confused:

I think that H C A & the Brothers Grimm tell much better story's. I only wish that posters here would stick to facts. Not fairy tales.
The message I was given that IF and its a big IF it comes from inside Virgin the person or persons if found will be sacked.
The thinking is if not made up by the poster then its a leg pull from outside the company . Can I put the comment clearer than that Richard:rolleyes:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2
 

No I don't mean that. I mean here on this thread. I think I'm a little offended by your post, if I'm honest. I fully understand the debt we owe our service men and women.

No. But then I never said I did, merely that I believe he posts in good faith, and without him and others like him, this thread wouldn't exist.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2
 

Could the launch of the Sky Sports HD channels on Virgin Media coincide with the launch of Sky Sports 5? Could VM and Sky be doing a joint venture on this one?

All seems a bit too preplanned.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2
 

Possibly, but if that was the case I would of expected it announce at the time of when they announce deal for renewal of contract and remaining HD sport variants in the same manner sky and ITV pre announce the launch of ITV encore

I hope sky can justify the launch of a new sports channel an not use it to move "premium" sports content just to make sure BT and VM can't see them. I seem to think the US Open golf is solely on skysports 4 which means BT any view this(?)

I think I agree with someone before; start of tailored channels for sport

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2
 

Well maybe if VM staff, directors etc pulled their finger out and gave customers what they are asking for. And not treating us like pieces of meat, then maybe we will respect them.

Each time l contact VM, its either 'oh sorry we can't give you an answer' or we will repair as soon as possible'

VM are such a big company taking on giants like Sky or BT Sports. And yet always seem to be the underdog.

We are after certain channels like Atlantic or we have an agreement with Sky regarding HD channels etc - when is that going to happen.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2
 

Either when SKY ask a reasonable price for it, or if customers are prepared to pay more for Atlantic. It's logic really, how many of the subscribers want Atlantic versus how many of those who would be willing for a one or two pound a month increase if Virgin paid the price SKY want. I'm sure that you Arthur and many more would be posting on here along the lines of 'another price increase, I already pay enough for my services why should I pay more'.

Curzon Home Cinema coming to Tivo in 2014
 

Curzon's independent on-demand film service which is currently on BT's YouView service mentioned as launching later this year on VM. This is in line with the guidance given on this thread by theone2k10 who said VM's focus would be on on-demand.
"Later this year Curzon’s potential home audience is expected to expand massively when it launches on Virgin Media’s Tivo set-top boxes, which are in more than 2m homes."

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2
 

That's my thinking because for a while now Virgin and Sky have had a entente cordiale relationship and one of the reasons for that is to combat the threat of BT.
