Discovery channel
 
Hi all,

Could someone please confirm which current virgin media tv packs Discovery is available on?

I was thinking of downgrading my full house tv pack but would rather not lose this channel.

Thank you.

M+ upwards for the SD channel

Full house for the HD channel

It is legal. https://tvplayer.com/plus

The order of the packs in the channel guide makes it difficult to make statements like M+ upwards as it shows Mix as being above M+. In reality, M+ has some channels not in the Mix pack and the Mix pack has some channels not in M+. Confusion reigns! :D

...and it appears that Mix doesn't include Discovery Channel and M+ is no longer available... so if I want to keep Discovery I'll have to stick with the Full House package.

Depending on what programmes you want, they may be on one of the free Discovery channels.

Thank you for your earlier reply theone2k10, it is very much appreciated.

I should have been clearer with my previous post...

If I wish to stay with Virgin Media, the only way of receiving Discovery Channel is to remain on the Full House TV pack.

Not yet, I'm in contract until March. Although, I'm guessing I'll get the price rise letter soon which means I could cancel my services if I decide to.

You can change your package anytime even if in contract i used to do it often and just say "it costs too much" they'll offer you a deal with a new contract.
