Not bad at all! Just been through the same thing. Mine came out about a tenner less than yours but without Premier Sports and only the basic Netflix. Was still very very happy with mine.

I'll need to do that soon enough. getting premier sports involved is decent! i have 3 boxes and it usually puts the price up over 100.

did you use retentions or the official vm forum?

I just called up the usual number and selected the thinking of leaving option,spoke to the guy and when he couldn't give me a good enough price got put through to retentions and got it sorted by them, pretty quick I'm happy to say

Hi mate i posted a page or so earlier about options that may save you some cash, not sure if you saw them or not though.
Might be worth considering.

Ofcourse when i get concrete info i will post.
Even if it is news of Mike Graham's proposed concrete farm?
Summer isn't a great time for breaking news, maybe things will improve as the daylight hours continue to shorten. I agree that there isn't much "gossip" around at the moment, at least not for anything significant.

Time, I think, for another reminder that V6 and TV360 boxes run on the same hardware. Claims of the technology being unable to support the tech are a red herring.

Blimey! I know some of the latest stats have shown that the growth of some streamers has plateaued. When even OB is cancelling streaming services, that says even more than the stats.
Or maybe Now is just too "woke" for him.

I have 360 software already on my V6 box and it works fine.

As I said, I only got Now to view Sky Atlantic. Now their programmes get shown on Sky Showcase, there’s no point, is there?

Especially the UK Original programming which makes the channel look pointless once HBO Max launches, that's if still exists...

There are going to be a few changes throughout next year in SKY channels 2 are expected to be dropped Atlantic is possibly one, also don't be surprised to see the Discovery channels leave SKY and VM once the contract is up.
