SACM and STB conflict
 

I've just had a STB added to my sccount and have been unable to access VOD or interactive.

The nice lady at NTL has said its a recently emerging problem with BB customers upgrading to TV where the system will only support one or the other? They are working on a fix.....

Anyone else had this?

guessing your in a bromley area, there are one or 2 issues with the new billing system, it is possible to have both on the box, but there are 1 or 2 issues with some accounts at the moment, i know its not an answer you probably want to here, but they are working on it & it should be resolved soon...:angel:

Is it worth me ringing Faults or CS with this issue again. I want VOD and am getting twitchy :D

Surely the whole of Bromley serviced area cannot be having this problem?

Do you get your broadband through a stand-alone cable modem?

The Interactive entitlement probably hasn't been added to your account. It's missing off a lot of accounts because it's not required in Telewest areas. Try Faults again (dial 151 from a Virgin landline), and get them to check the Interactive services are enabled on your account.

Update on this.

Spoke to an Asian lady, it is being escalated to 2nd line faults, details taken were STB number and Card Number.

I also raised the problem I have rebooting (it takes an age to reboot, if i repower too early i just get a flashing red powerlight).

Re: SACM and STB conflict
 

Final update. I'm enabled and running and actually rather impressed :D
