I've noticed recently that the adverts on cable are different to the ones on Freeview. Not sure if this happened after the change to NGTV.

On cable I get adverts about things not available/relevant such as 10p Daily Star offers when it's 20p in the newsagents - apparently it's a regional offer, also offers about trains to Newcastle on the East Coast.

According to the Channel Five website there's only 4 advertising regions so they are quite large so there's no real excuse why it is wrong: http://about.five.tv/sales/spot-advertising/macro-map

Anyone else noticed this?

Cable: Bromsgrove hubsite -> Wolverhampton regional head end

Freeview: Sutton Coldfield

Apologies, this ought to be in the Virgin Media TV Service forum.

Could someone move it?
