All about how Virgin Media are the only pay-TV provider out of Sky, BT TV and Talk Talk TV to be losing customers.

They consider Virgin Media's high prices and missing channels to be key factors.

They've always said that the TV side doesn't make any money and is only provided for triple play reasons, whilst commission from apps would make a little money.

Missing channel complaints could simply be directed to Amazon, Now TV etc.

From a thread asking why VM are the only company to be losing TV customers:

Presumably they're working on a response to the SkyQ, along with something for the low-cost NowTV market.

Unfortunately there was no opportunity to tell them what has put me off Virgin TV so far (Sluggish TiVo, missing channels, lack of dynamic EPG).
