People also seem to be getting between £8 and £10 off their package after calling Virgin threatening to cancel!

It pays to know your T&C's! |

Just make is available to us for a subscription if they have to.
We'd rather have the chance to get it, even if we have to pay, then not have it at all!

That is the last resort outcome - you don't jump staight to that in a negotiation. That would be idiotic!

Last resort?
It's launch day.
They've had a year to negotiate this.

To be fair, a Virgin year is opposite to Dog years, 1 normal year is 1/7 of a virgin year. So it is only 1.7 months, 52 days, just over 7 weeks.
Hardly anytime to negotiate 
(the counting was brought to you by the letter "C" and the number "25")

Launch day but how many football fans will be too bothered until the season starts.
How many player transfer deals are done on the last day of the window? It is a part of negotiation strategy.
Just take a deep breath and see what happens.

I'm a LIverpool fan.
There's 3 Liverpool matches on BT Sport before the PL starts on the 17th.
And then we are the first PL game on BT SPort on the 17th at 12:45.
So if this talk of 'being told something on the 17th' is true, it's probably too late to get it on in time for that match as well.
This should have been sorted out by now. they've had more than enough time.

I don't have any insiders or any other official communication but I truly believe that things will sort themselves out very soon. Some negotiations take time. It has to be the right conclusion for both parties involved. It isn't as simple as negotiating 'a price' it's more about getting the best deal for Virgin's customers.

same. Liverpool fan too. i can't get it on Virgin without an upgrade to a collection which will take weeks. i can't go ahead and order it on my Sky Freesat until i know if Virgin are getting it or not. so i'm stuck. i need to know now ffs. so i can get it all sorted before the 17th.

It's no good to Scottish football fans. The Scottish season kicks-off tomorrow night on BT Sports with Partick Thistle v Dundee United. Then on Saturday the 10th they have Rangers v Brechin.

Like the two years we have had to wait for Sky Atlantic and alas we are still waiting for it.

Sky haven't really got BT sport though cause to get it through Sky you need to be a BT BB subscriber, which is pretty stupid really.
