I had question time before I left Ntl. Whether this was only for a few shows I'm not sure as it isn't normally in my required viewing for the week.

So overall you don't get the News24 multiscreens. You do get the football, proms, wimbledon, special events like D-Day, chelsea flower show etc.

Yep so thats virtually everything else you don't get.

[vileda]

Has it been changed so that the multiscreens are available via the red button, I seem to remember having to retune to channel 900 or something for some special event.

[Derek]

For things like wimbledon, proms etc. there is a red button prompt available on the BBC channel.

So it's a case of 'coming soon' from Sky then. But thats OK because they are not Ntl.

Yes, because they are giving months, not years. I don't care how many times it get's put back, at least we know when they are trying to do it for.

So. Not just me that was a little cheesed off with NTL taking THREE years to change one major problem!

We'd have to have one first! Sky had theirs out ages ago, still waiting for NTL to pull their fingers out. God knows what a mess they'll make of the software. Can't wait. Judging by their track record blah blah blah...

Never happen. That's why Sky want you to choose them.

So £9 per month more for less channels. FACT.

You are a liar.

The quote from me above have been retyped and changed. I have not said that anywhere in this thread to you.

How sad can it be that to backup your inaccurate, misinformed ,and silly posts ,You have to resort to altering others posts and then misquoting people so you look correct when your not. How sad can that be .

99.9% of the posters on this forum can have a truly grownup debate, but not you.

If anyone else wants to see all the rantings look here

I have not reported your post. That way it will stay long enough for it to be seen by all and they all can see that you are a liar.

BTW

HAVE A NICE DAY

I know when I got tempted by Sky I realised I'm the sort of person who'd pay for the box warranty in year 2 onwards so that £100 (Sky+ warranty) would have made the cost the same as NTL who incude free fixing.

I only used official web sites to get my information so THEY are wrong then.

Either way, that's worse, not better.
