While their directors lap up free lunches and playing golf all the time.
When they asked us what we want - we don't get it.

They put on tv channels that most people don't want. We have been offered SA so many times by Sky. But, VM have said that its too expensive.

Freesport - is a FREE TO AIR CHANNEL, and VM still don't have it. It doesn't matter if contracts are with another company - Premier Sports.

All directors have to do is sit round a table and thrash a deal out.

The VM sales team were out in force today in Hounslow. When they asked me, l said ' my wife said we are with VM already. I said, the sooner it goes the better. Instead of saying, why ?, can we get you a better deal to stay' the guy walked away. And said 'never mind'

Some company reps try there best to keep customers. But l think customers will simply walk away from VM, after April - when l believe prices are going up again.

And then in six months, they will do the same again.

And especially, if its true that Sky will go down the same road and get cables. Like it said in the press.

What makes you think Sky's wired service will carry FTA channels automatically. These channels currently only pay Sky for an EPG listing. Something here is making me think Sky are heading for a hybrid service with this offering, supplemented by either Freeview or a dish.
