Hey folks.

I just joined this forum, as it sure has lots of useful information about services provided by Virgin Media.

I joined Virgin Media back in November (am ex-NTL) as there are programs I enjoy on some Sky channels, but sadly, they've been taken away.

I am a Deaf customer, and as such, rely on subtitles. Since the Sky channels have been taken away and the introduction of Virgin Central and VOD, I tend to miss out on using VOD, as the shows are not subtitled

, therefore, no good to me, lol. My current package is 3 for Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£30 (TV L, Phone weekends, and BB 2MB). As I rely on subtitles to watch my fave shows, I am tempted to switch to Sky (as much as I hate Murdoch) but I'd rather stay with VM. I was thinking of calling Retentions and explain but my wife says they might offer me a deal to keep me. What should I ask for, or accept? She suggested asking for Sky Movies (as most are subtitled) for a deal.

I am not sure what to ask or tell Retentions, as at the moment, I am not happy with our TV package now that Sky channels are gone.

What do u guys think?
