Re: TV-Choice on demand gone.

Sneaky.
Please would you mind pointing out where on the following pages Virgin have been sneaky?

TV M: http://allyours.virginmedia.com/webs...ct.do?id=11169

TV L: http://allyours.virginmedia.com/webs...oduct.do?id=20

On neither page can I find ANY reference to access to TV Choice on Demand

What puzzles me even further is that, when exploring TV Choice On Demand content back in January (as any new customer would) I noted that SOME content at that time was only available pay per view (98p per tv episode).

This makes me believe VM are being disingenuous and underhand - unless On Demand customers were also expected to pay extra again to view these tv shows ON TOP of paying the extra £7 subscription?
But you were accessing a section for free due to technical error. So you cannot judge what should and should not have been chargeable - unless you then bother to pay Virgin to access TV Choice

All in all, my VM experience from the day I first opted to subscribe 5 months ago has been a vile experience. I anxiously await my contract expiring so I can expunge this sorry, lying and deceitful excuse for a company out of my life.
So your whole opinion is based on you getting something for free that you shouldn't have, and that wasn't in ANY marketing for the service you have - and now because it has been remove you think the company is a pile of proverbial?
