It transpires that they only cancelled the phone line which made everything go up.

I strongly object to paying for a sports channel I don't want especially when it is mostly funding overpaid premier league footballers. The virgin guy trying to tell me how lucky I was to get it at such a low price did not help. The final nail in the coffin though was them trying to claim I was on a twelve month contract because 3 months ago I allowed a salesperson to up my package. After much arguing and denial on their part they finally found the notes from the salesperson stating I was to be on a 30 day rolling contract not a 12 month contract for the new service. Only found those notes though after I threatened to go to Ofcom. Found them surprisingly quickly after thatJaybeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05926520310312489115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2644371100807363751.post-71982457575937517322015-08-10T10:16:48.637+01:002015-08-10T10:16:48.637+01:00Tivo was very exciting when it first launched with...Tivo was very exciting when it first launched with new things coming on a regular basis. It just seems to have stalled now, and there is no "sizzle" from the service these days.<br /><br />All of these new STBs look much more exciting than Tivo these days sadly.MattShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05896628826284264279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2644371100807363751.post-48978366512027320332015-08-07T18:15:55.775+01:002015-08-07T18:15:55.775+01:00No Stephen, I don't.

I would fear a price rise if they did take it up a level, and at the moment it's good value and good enough PQ in my bookNiallihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11917083363610144290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2644371100807363751.post-13888760583343008282015-08-07T17:44:34.845+01:002015-08-07T17:44:34.845+01:00Do you know if there are definite plans for Now TV...Do you know if there are definite plans for Now TV to offer 1080p steaming? A review of the new box on TNW suggests that it'll remain at 720p for the time being, although the new hardware could handle 1080p in the future.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15468318062963327485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2644371100807363751.post-68839708538224747872015-08-07T16:39:01.017+01:002015-08-07T16:39:01.017+01:00I find Virgin media tv a strange beast while the b...I find Virgin media tv a strange beast while the broadband and phone services seem to evolve the tv side of things is looking a bit stale,the tivo service has not changed since its launch(the recent upgrade is very disappointing,i swear i cant tell much difference between the old home page). BT has just launched its new box and 4K service and Sky are promising us a 4K service with High Dynamic Range while still keeping people happy with Sky Atlantic and more HD channels.<br /> I have recently bought a Roku 2 media streamer and now dip regularly into Now TV,their streamed movie service and Sky sports are like you say much improved,recently Sky HD were offering a new TV and introductory offer to switch to Sky although I've been loyal to Virgin for many years i am finding it very tempting indeed....rowland2008https://www.blogger.com/profile/12039783496394595470noreply@blogger.com
