Anyone else got blank screen Sky Sports and Movies?
 
Hi

About 11.15 p.m. I was watching the darts on Sky Sports 1 and the picture froze, I turned channel to Sky Sports 2 that was blank - same is happening on the Sky Movie Channels. All other channels appear to be ok? Tried switching V+ box off and back on - same result - no Sky Sports or Sky Movies. We did return a Virgin Media box to Virgin a couple of days ago (we had 3 boxes in total - my daughter in law just moved out so there was no need for one of them). I am wondering if Virgin have cocked up and done something to our account that has stopped the V+ box from receiving the channels?

Brilliant eh? I'm sitting there thoroughly enjoying the darts and all of a sudden picture freezes - change to Sky Sports 2 and blank screen, back to Sky Sports 1 - blank screen - I can't be bothered with it now - I'm going to head off to bed!!

Why do people go to cable forums IF they pay for there services "FULLY" or "PARTIALLY"
when they could just ring the Cable Company up and get it sorted there and then ???
