To describe it as "bitching" is to trivialise the level of feeling that people have about this issue.
The fact that so many people have reacted to this demonstrates that there is strong feeling about this. I sincerely hope that those people that feel that we should just let it happen without protest (legitimate as those sentiments are) wont bury those of us that feel that we shouldnt just shut-up about feeling hard done by. I might disagree with "you" (meant genericaly) but I really do respect the fact that you are entitled to your opinion. I just feel that we are also entitled to ours. This is about what is "comming soon" to VM, what better place to say "but not to everybody".... As I have said previously all I want is to be treated fairly..... I know that the "roll out" wont happen similtunasoly for everybody, But those of us that dont recieve the same service as others shouldnt have to pay the same as others. I agree the HD channels should be realsed as quickly as possible for those that can recieve them. But if I cant get the channels I shouldnt have to pay for them. And before people start quoting "these are free channels so you cant complain" they are NOT free channels - If I stopped paying VM my subscription I wouldnt get ANY of the channels. I pay well over £1000 per year for my services, if I am going toget a lesser service than others paying the same or less I think I am entitled to be slightly ticked off.
I have said before and I will say again, I am really not bothered about the HD channels, what I am bothered about is that VM dont care about me as a cutomer enought to treat me fairly.
I wouldnt dream of going back to SKY (heaven forbid!!) I am happy with the quality of service I get from VM, I love the BB I get, BUT that doesent mean that I think that to announce new HD channels without mentioning that we wont all get them is fair.... If I cant get it I want a reduced fee for the time I cant get it. Not much - even if it was only a couple of pounds I would at least feel that I was being treated with fairenss..... Yes I konw that sounds like I have thrown my dummy out of the pram (to quote another poster) but actually I believe in standing up for what I believe even though you might not agree with me, it is not trivial..........
