I myself are one of those that will not get these HD channels for 1st/2nd April.

The fact VM are completing the NGTV upgrade which benefits all VM customers and the fact they are listening and starting to produce promises around more HD content.

So for those that who wish to moan and curse about a possiable month delay (no doubt it will be done sooner) either except that VM are doing this for the greater good or GO TO SKY

NGTV post gives all the inforamtion needed so go moan there.
first of all its ACCEPT not EXCEPT !!

the next point its not just as easy as "GO TO SKY". even with all the great information you brought you just proved how moronic you can be.
people just cant up sticks and move to Sky there is people who ristrictions by either not being able to have a sky dish installed due to living in rented accomodation and not having permission off the landlords or because then live in housing unsuitable for installing sky dishes (high rise flats), there is even places where the local council wont let you have permission to have a dish on the house regardless of if you own it or not.

sure its only a short wait (2 months actually not 1 if you are the last area to be swapped to NGTV) but people on VM have been waiting a long time for the HD revolution to finally happen on VM sure we got a little last year but the latest announcement is rally putting VM on par with Sky and to announce them to all and then to issue restrictions to people due to VM not upgrading as fast as they thought is dissapointing. Maybe VM should of taken the NGTV upgrades into account and mentioned it on all the announcements that the channels are NGTV spacific or that the channel will be available to all in june (sooner to customers on NGTV).

as it is VM have shot themselves in the foot by doing a pretty poor job on clarity of the situation (or a good job in decieving customers) and customers have the right to moan about it.

my area is already on NGTV (Teesside) so personally its not going to affect me, but i do feel for those who are going to have to wait as ive been on the end of a few deals like this (not just on VM) and its annoying to have to wait for something other have already even though you are paying the same price.
