Several games of cricket have already been on the Red Button west indies/pakistan series so i guess for the cricket,tennis its already arrived not sure about golf or other sport though.

The football will be fully fuctional from the start of the season in august hopefully.

Re: sky sports red button

Mine still doesn't work - posted on Support forum 12/05 - No response. Indian Call Centre have advised me twice (we don't have the red button) during a call with them on the missing content.....

V+HD Box - I know I can't be the only one who is suffering a complete meltdown of their box everytime they press the red button to watch whatever sport is available at that time.

No issues with any other aspect of Red Button

To be honest the only issue i really have with VM is their communication with customers,the red button has been launched contrarary to the indian call centres advice to you, although no red button has launched yet on the newer TiVo box,but on your V+HD box cricket,tennis and golf have all been on red button on sky sports, the football is due in august have you spoken to an english call centre yet ?, they are generally much better then the indian ones as you need to report it as a fault.

Have you tried re-booting your box as this sometimes works Red Button did freeze once on mine i re-booted and all was fine.

l am afraid the foreign call centres are utterly useless as far as l am concerned and you need to speak to a british call centre worker as they understand things a lot more.

It's unfortunate that VM decide to employ people for whom English may not be their first language to discuss technical problems with their V service. It's absolutly not their fault, of course, it's VM's.

I would have great difficulty explaining tht my red button doesn't work in Spanish, or French or Urdu so why should VM expect it the other way around. Ludicrous!
