Chill out. The service has only just been switched on. Programmes will be added over a short time frame. It won't all just appear right away!

No that would not be a good idea.

and no it would not be interesting at all. Honestly I worry about some peoples lack of patience and common sense sometimes!

Come on mate, did you really think it would be instant. This is a catch-up and on demand service that will decrease and increase depending on what is up and running. It's been less than 24 hours and these things take time. Patience really is a virtue

I should have read past the ops post at seems he has been responded to already lol

Spoke to three different operators, and then the boss.
Kept saying they had sent a signal through - put on hold for several minutes each time - nothing.

After what seemed like several hours, the "Boss" said he would send out an engineer !! Kept explaining that it just needed activation at their end, what an engineer was supposed to do I have no idea.

I like Virgin, Tivo etc. but CS have just added the final straw.
I'll take a deep breath wait 24 hours, and then it's a phone call to the dark side I'm afraid

UPDATE

24 hours - still no HD on second box.
Decided to give it one more shot...........
Spoke to a guy called Cameron - IN THE UK
checked and said yes I can do that for you now, it will take about 15 minutes!

15 minutes later, all there in glorious HD
Why oh why do we have to put up with overseas call centres, who don't have a clue about anything

This happened to me yesterday, needed some signals sent down to box as lost all HD channels, someone in the Indian call centre 'sent them' and I was waiting for a good 2 hours, called someone in the UK and they arrived in about 10 minutes
