NTL vs Telewest
If im right in thinking are the ExNTL customers and the ExTelewest customers getting different things. If so dose anyone know when the two will be put together so everyone gets the same Virgin Media?

Re: NTL vs Telewest
There are some differences in the channels carried. This dates back to agreements made when the tow companies were separate.

VM is working to unify this which might mean some channels being added or dropped form the line up. The speed of this largely depends on negotiations with the various channels suppliers as the contracts come up for renewal.

Don't tell me some people aren't getting the sublime pleasure of the Flaunt and Bliss channels.
