Can someone please confirm which package the CBS channels are currently in. The MB list says M+, but someone earlier was adamant that they were on the M package.

Think prob we were finding out before some of there staff and someone as spat there dummy out 
|
Probably the case there and additional people phoning up saying where is x channel as They read it here and staff didn't know.
Anyway just adding my appreciation to everyone who discloses info, even rumours like vincerooney states brighten my days up reading the banter and speculation

I honestly can't see VM sorting out the legal, retail and technical sides of launching a channel and then abandoning it at the last minute because of something that has been posted here
The only exception to this could have been BT Sports.
The non appearence of the +1 channel was more likely due to the date being put back in favour of essential tests that need to be completed for Netflix, which takes higher priority than a +1 SD channel.
Sometimes dates are planned, but due to technical difficulties encountered or higher priority deals that are subsequently agreed upon, they are put back. This is why VM don't usually announce launch dates in advance, as it would irritate cystomers and make them look unprofessional.
Even putting a 'coming soon' slate onto the EPG is a risk. There were unforseen technical difficulties that delayed the launch of The Africa Channel and a legal oversight that led to the delay of Tiddlers TV.

They need to log into their account bud first i upgraded to M+ , then shortly after the xl for £8p/m for 6 months popped up under my offers , i ordered that instead and got the "you're in!" e-mail today.
The offer is for everyone on M+ or for thos on M it's M+ for £3p/m for 3 months but because they went upto M+ the XL offer should show up within 24hrs if that makes sense? lol.
I've added a screenshot if that helps?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 5.
FOX+ has been delayed due to some deal with FOX about Fox movies launching. This is a rumour btw and should not be taken as fact it's just what i heard and i will post here what news i get because i'm not going to let some trolls from a Torie loving forum ruin everything for everyone here.
It's obvious trolls from a certain Torie loving forum are coming on here and attempting to bully people via pm. Well it's not going to work i'm the kind of person who stands up to bullys so i will continue to post rumours here.

Same here.

Cheers for that info. I do wonder if LG may be trying to morph the M TV package into a package designed to offer the best of both freeview and Freesat?
I think that the best of these two platforms, combined with a TiVo, may tempt existing Freeview and Freesat viewers onto the cable platform.
Of course, once on it, it is much, much easier to upsell.

I am still trying to figure what the channel is where they have music and film together, and it is soothing.
