Why come on a VM TV forum and not expect loss of TV channels not to be discussed with such fervour?
Infering that these things are inconsequential compared to many other things would be correct. Well, except on a TV discussion forum, where TV services are the sole purpose of the forum.

Re: Have you changed/cancelled your account since ESPN closing?
I'm gonna wait a while for news but as a regular ESPN America viewer it's made a pretty big impact on my viewing experience. I'd love for Virgin to actually update its' customers on a regular basis (let's face it, they've got the majority of their clientele's email addresses) with news in respect of the ongoing discussions instead of us having to scour the 'net for rumour and conjecture but that'll never happen which is a shame.

Again, if they are still negotiating, what can they say except that they are in talks.

Re: Have you changed/cancelled your account since ESPN closing?
for now gone to m+ cant see BT coming anytime soon but losing 4 espn channels was a game changer but there's other ways to watch sport wink wink.

Re: Have you changed/cancelled your account since ESPN closing?
Steveqpr, the chances of VM advising their customers of what is happening, is like trying to find gold in Hounslow High Street, that will never happen, but must confess there CS is appalling.
And l am counting down the days till the 17th August when Spurs KO.

Re: Have you changed/cancelled your account since ESPN closing?
if bt sport was coming in the near future they wouldn't be giving £10 of your monthly bill.

Re: Have you changed/cancelled your account since ESPN closing?
Hi all,
Long time reader, first time poster! I've been on XL for 3/4 years. Just downgraded to "Essential" (m+). Pretty much only had XL for ESPN to watch the UFC. Wouldn't consider leaving Virgin as I think the essential package is really good value for money.

No chance of me jumping ship, just added a extra box for my bedroom in fact.

You and all those others that say they only got TV XL for ESPN have been wasting a lot of money for a long time.
ESPN was always available standalone on the lower packages. It was £6 extra if you had Sky Sports and £8 if you didn't have Sky Sports.
What is the difference in price between TV XL and TV M+? £16.50 per month.
