Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)

As far as l am aware, in 2008 it was announced by VM, that by the end of 2009 we would have approx 30 HD channels, on VM. This has nothing to do with the fact that l purchased the V+ BOX purely as it was better quality that Sky+, the HD tv purchased with the HD channels in mind. I also bought the HD Tv becuase l was told by VM themself, that the channels would be there. I am quite happy that we will have to wait for the channels to arrive, BUT l am not the only one complaining about the delay in HD channels.

I would also like to know if someone can answer if there is a possibility of Magic 105.4 for LONDON coming back, as it appears yet again VM take something off without telling anyone.

If that's the case there must a published quote, or press release saying that.

I shall look forward to reading it once you link to it

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)

Remember though that part of that was based on 'we would like to get the Sky HD channels, and are working with OFCOM to do so'. Although they then said they hoped that process would be completed this year, it's a different thing to any other channel agreement

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)

Here is a good point, If these HD channels are coming on, WHAT channels are going off, as l believe l read on this forum, VM don't have enough capacity on its cables.

The analogue cable switch off will free up enough space
