Sometime since 4pm today Virgin Media has put up on on-screen info saying ''We've said goodbye to Sky Living Loves''. on Virgin Channel 164 - Ex home of Diva TV.
But Sky Living Loves is still broadcasting on Virgin Channel 159.

Re: Coming soon to Virgin TV (2012) Vol. 1
Hi guys, on my box I have a channel called INTACC testing on my box, it says programmes resume again tomorrow at 00.00? any ideas. I also have 20 versions of bbc 1? 5 versions of channel 4 and 2 of channel 4 +1, 4 versions of channel 5, 17 versions of itv1 and the equivalent of itv+1.
Sky sports F1 is testing on my box on channel 336 and 7 unknown channels without any description next to them.

Thanks for info.
Was told about ''INTACC'' testing by an Virgin Tester weeks ago but was waiting on more info.
Thanks for info on Sky Sports F1 testing.
All the BBC, ITV1, Channel 4 and Channel 5 are just for they local areas (Virgin use Viewers Post Code for them).
Plus viewers may see their local news on ITV1 +1 this week as ITV are launching more ITV1 +1 channels on Astra this week.

Exactly what I was thinking !!!!
Sure the 2 channels lost were not the most watched but it's another 2 channels lost and nothing announced to replace them except a price increase !!!

What does it have to do with VM? If channels cease broadcasting there's not a whole lot they can do.

Re: Coming soon to Virgin TV (2012) Vol. 1
Indeed, you also pay for a package of channels, not a set amount. Otherwise the price would increase with each additional

Its nothing to do with VM if a channel ceases broadcasting.
You also pay for a package not a certain amount of channels so VM do not have to provide a replacement for it.

I think peoples main point is that they can see channels disappearing for various understandable reasons ie they cease to broadcast.
But they see their subscription increasing so are left wondering what they are getting for the extra cash.
Quite understandably.
