You could well be right, it was just a suggestion and pointing out upcoming features.

I guess you are snookered if you cannot have a dish but most people probably can.

You can downgrade to just M TV if that's any use (only existing customers can do this) and still get catch up which is what I have done.

I do not love VM, as I do not love or hate any of my service providers - if they caused me the amount of anguish you seem to be undergoing, I would move; if you see this as defending VM, you have a very strange view on things, imho.

It's called constant repetive whinging (imho).....

If you are so unhappy, why don't you leave VM?
