That lonely comment I made about you when your other friends come over to VM really hurt you, didn't it? I am so truly sorry. I didn't mean to upset you in any way. But don't worry, you'll soon find other little friends to play with, I'm sure.

LOL

You do need to get a life, if you feel anything you say can actually hurt me.

I am now starting to feel sorry for you

I agree though, he does have a weight problem, and a green problem too

Does anyone think that with Cindy gone, we'll have a far better chance?

No. Not soon. But if there was just the faintest whiff of netflix on the medium term horizon I'd be absolutely delighted. Virgin have done well to increase their hd offering, but at the same time their on demand library has suffered. Now is the time to concentrate on content.

AFAIK, Netflix have never done a deal where it is bundled in a cable providers package. That could be ground breaking or a hurdle.

For gaming, Virgin places last. (sky 2nd, BT 1st)

Will take your word for that, I have not tried on-line gaming.

Never ever paid for a repair with Sky.

In which case you are very lucky. Do you pay a monthly fee for free repairs like my brother does?

I have a 2tb box, works fantastic..can't fill it (and not sure i would want to)

A well thought out response. I notice it is trying to copy lots of TIVO features now though.

Hard to argue with TV anywhere, as the other two don't have that. So seems stupid for you to say. But we do have Sky Go. We do have On demand.

I mentioned more streaming channels on TV anywhere. So not really a stupid comment.

Picture quality is fantastic on all the HD channels.

As are VM's.

So please do go on..as you are scoring nil so far

I guess you have roundly trounced me with your remarks. Don't let me stop you singing Sky's praises!!!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 4.

I never sing sky praises...i merely say what works..for me.

It is you who seems to have some sky issues, misplaced loyalties

i am loyal to my wallet, not any company

Free repairs - I agree
Better Customer Service - Disagree. Sky are now setting up a new Customer Service program and it is alot better, trust me watch this space
TV Anywhere channels - I agree but at least we have Sports and Movies on the go via mobile and tablets unlike TV Anywhere
More Reliable PQ - Disagree as Sky is great and only small issues with weather, massive issues = installation fault
One Bill each month - Agian doesnt bother me
Cheers nstokes, a much more reasoned and mature reply. Although I note you are saying Sky are improving their Customer Service Program which leads me to think their service continued to be poor after I dealt with them.

Sky told me my installation and dish were correct, when I had awful picture issues. Perhaps I had a poor engineer come out to me. Not sure about the issues my parents have though.

BIB As did I. You felt the need to question why I thought VM were better than Sky, and then took offence and responded rather childishly to my responses.

If I have issues with Sky, why are my loyalties misplaced?????

I have stated many, many times that VM offer me the best package. Even if I was allowed a sky dish, VM would still offer the best package for me.

Sorry, i responded to your inaccurate statement.

I never claim any provider is better. I merely qualify that it may be better for me.

You stated Virgin were better.

please keep up, it will save time.
