Such a terrible, terrible, shame, on both counts.

Not.

Yep.. my internet speed is going up to 20mbps from 1st May.. £2 extra.. However talkunlimited comes down to just £9.95 the difference will be cheaper for me.

I had heard I could get a second box installed for free.. but this does not appear to be the case

Roberta · 26-04-2007, 21:26

Hurrah! Today I got all my channels! Cor! Lots!

Haly · 26-04-2007, 21:28

Excellent

I returned to Stafford today to find that my box had updated itself and now has different colours and the virgin logo on the channel select screens. Weird thing is the one in Swansea hasn't yet so not sure if they're rolling out the update area by area

Spooky!
I like it though, and had a poke around all the TV on demand stuff last night. Very impressive

Only thing that seemed to cost anything was the movies. Watched the Best of Top Gear and the first episode of Father Ted instead of crap that was on TV

They tried it on with me the other day.
I got a letter informing me that i haven't been paying line rental for months and my bill would now be going up 11 quid a month. They apologised for the mistake and said as it's there fault they won't ask for back pay

So i rolled a fat one and hit 150 for a chat, i gave them my normal self and told them my price had been gaurenteed for 12 months. She said she understands that but i am paying much to less for the services i get. I told her i don't give a flying **** what you think i should be paying or what others are paying, All i care about is that i have been with them since day one and they are offering better deals to new customers, Now sort it out.
So she went of on a wander/chat to boss type thingy and came back and has lowered my bill from what it was before

& gaurenteed the price for the next 12 months.
So 10 meg TV pack and House phone for 30 quid a month for the next 12 months. They write me a letter putting the price up & i phone them getting the price not only back down to what it was before but lower

Am a happy chappy again.

Oooh I feel right in the mood for something silly and funny

Might get one of those tonight.

I've got to cancel it soon and pay off 3 months in one go so might as well enjoy it while I can
