Re: Rant about virgin tv
I did answer all of those questions.
And if you don't want to deal with BT then just keep the Virgin BB and change the tv to Sky. Still not sure what all your fuss is about. You have the option to go to the provider you like who can give you all the things important to you like more channels, more HD and first dibs on HD channel launches but you still chose not to.

Re: Rant about virgin tv
Look guys
If you dont like being with Virgin Then go over to Sky.
Pay Virgin there fees to leave them and go over to Sky im so sure you will want to come back to Virgin.
Im sick of hearing people moan about Virgin and then still stay with them.
Grow some balls and leave and start with Sky and then go to there forums and moan about how crap sky is.
Sick of it.

Re: Rant about virgin tv
I didn't really ignore anything you said.
What I got from your posts so far is that you don't like Virgin tv yet carry on paying a subscription for it.

No not at all but it could and should be a whole lot better. Let's just leave it eh? Maybe my point isn't coming over correctly, np.

Re: Rant about virgin tv
Henkesghost, I understand what you are saying and in many ways I agree with you. Virgin's communcation to their (own staff, let alone) customers about channels launches is very poor. To their credit they have improved the TV offering from when I joined 3 years ago, but I agree with you that the lag a long way behind the market leader. Mr Berkett's claim that this year is the year they focus on tv is in my opinion only half fulfilled!

I have to say I agree with a lot of your comments. I have been with Virgin for over 10 years after being with sky for 5 years. For me the package I have with Virgin is better value to me than anything sky can offer. We will just have to be patient for more HD content.

Re: Rant about virgin tv
Personally I admire Berkett...especially the way he has made VM a more competitive company over the last two years, so much so that if he wanted he could come around my house for tea.
But if whilst he was eating his French Fancies and drinking his Darjeeling he took control of the remote and started changing channels willy nilly, I'd say...BERKETT NO, I respect the way you've managed to turn two ailing cable companies into one successful one, but you cannot come to my house and treat it like head office.
My wife and I pay a premium for your great services but in my house I'm the only one who touches the remote, now take your Aussie surfers good looks and get out of my house.
And I'd av right on my side.
