thanks for that! interesting!

No doubt a response to Sky removing their charge.

Re: virgin to scrap V PLUS CHARGE
 

If true.
I'm assuming if you don't have V+ then I guess you'd just have to fork out for an installation cost to get the service? Unlike Sky you do not need to buy the box as it's owned by VM.

I dont think they will offer it for free because sky still charge for their hd service but not for the + service

Re: virgin to scrap V PLUS CHARGE
 

i wonder if they will have enough boxes to go around if there is a mad rush for them ? i reckon they will charge £5 per month with the first 6 months free

would i be correct in thinking customers could self install this product ? Also maybe and this is a just maybee virgin will start selling the box in its stores for say £50 ?

From your link...

Re: virgin to scrap V PLUS CHARGE
 

I can't see them scrapping the charge... Otherwise you've got hundreds of thousands of STBs that noone will want.

They'd probably lower the monthly charge though

Re: virgin to scrap V PLUS CHARGE
 

Charging for it as an HD service will be talking the proverbial though given the astounding, unbelievable range of HD content that actually gets you...


Theoretically you could probably do a self install, but ideally VM want you to keep the original box and have it relocated to increase the revenue from you and make the most of the old box. Otherwise they have to either get rid of a ton of boxes or store them - either way it's not making them money.

I heard this today at work. However i cannot comment in case my post is taken out of context. But i will now be ordering a third V+ :)

Re: virgin to scrap V PLUS CHARGE
 

what exactly did you hear ?

Re: virgin to scrap V PLUS CHARGE
 

Sorry but with the amount of idiots on here at the moment i have decided to have a policy of NO COMMENT. I have already had my comments used to make it look like i said something which i did not.

Re: virgin to scrap V PLUS CHARGE
 

Makes sense to get your order in now. I should imagine that even they drop it down to 5 quid, they'd be a rush on for them.

What about my bonus for next year then?

DS could at least have spelt the COOs name correctly... :rolleyes:
