Hey,
I have a few quick Q's if that's ok (didn't want to make a new topic!).
Is there any change in the GUI for Virgin Media digital TV? And is there a new STB for customers? I used to have NTL TV in an old uni house and it was so crap! STB crashed a couple of times a week, and the whole layout of the UI was very unintuitive. Worst of all the channel numbers were so random and disorganised! Sky are great; nice responsive UI and ordered channels, 3xx for films 6xx for cartoons etc. etc.
I just have normal freeview atm, but would consider moving back to NTL/VM if the service has been vastly improved. Currently paying £25pm for 4MB internet and £12.xx for a BT line. NTL seem to have a lot of much sweeter deals on at the moment!
Cheers,
Suman

Hi I cant answer your first question as im still on the old software version.
The current V box (STB) is a samsung but however there are still a few other ones knocking around for example Pace, these are not made anymore though.
The new user interface from what i have heard is very good and there has been some massive changes since you ditched the T.V.
Virgin Central
VOD in masses
New channels
They do have some great bundles as i'm on one. ( This would meen switching your phoneline to Virgin Media you would be able to keep your old number)
Here is what i got:
V+box
V box upstairs
XL Tv package
M Broadband
XL Phone (free uk landline calls)
For £50.00
Great Deal
Also if you did want to see what the t.v is like now if you have a phoneline with Virgin media you can get free t.v basically freeview with a few extra channels.
Anyway i suggest you ring up the Customer Realations team and say your willing to get free t.v and a phoneline with you on top of your broadband.
They will defo offer you somthing if you ask!!
Hope this helps
John
P.S there is no such company as Ntl anymore We are all now Virgin Media!!!
