I am just shocked they haven't said anything to reassure customers at all. I bet they have lost quite a few customers already because of this.

I understand what you are saying, but how do we know they are actually in talks. We are taking their word for it, and we all know how much that is worth.

Surely they could say the likelihood of it being done, instead of some customers being in doubt about whether or not they will have it by the time the Prem starts.

I would bet quite a lot to see that.

They may be planning to meet later in the week or still talking now. If so it would be foolish to say something.

If there are no talks and especially if there are no prospect of talks then it is true that they really should say something.

Yh mate. I really am stuck in the balance ATM regarding this whole situation. Hopefully they will speak up sooner rather than later.

I wish you luck. I am staying as love Tivo and the Broadband and have Sky Sports and Eurosport which will do me if BT is either extra or doesn't turn up. I do hope BT comes for those who want it I really do.....

Yes l agree with you that they have to obey stock market rules but the day of reckoning is coming and if nothing happens by then l would expect a surge in the loss of customers come at the end of next week.

The only sticking point for me ATM is the Tivo, as it really is the best box on the market IMO. I am a BT Infinity customer, so I get BT Sports free anyway.

People keep saying this, but as I quoted last week from the sun newspaper, a BT spokesman said "We are prepared to wholesale the channel to Virgin Media but not for the price they are offering" to which a Virgin Media spokesman said "we are only interested in deals which are good value for our customers".
