Has anyone got NTL as a digital TV subscriber, that has now been taken over by Virgin? We have...
Guess what Sky are doing to knock them down? They are charging extra for the Sky One channel (a channel with 24, and Lost (something I'm not bothered about)).
Virgin are saying they won't pay it, and it has been officially announced that we are now going to lose that channel. Virgin says it is unfair, since they'd have to increase the price more, in which case, no one would want the service anyway, and Sky, are obviously doing it to get people to move over.
I think this is really mad, but since we love 24 here, it seems we may be forced to switch to Sky. We do get a lot of problems with NTL... At least with Sky now, you can get some kind of broadband package, like we have with NTL now.
Some of me is saying to leave Sky in the dust though, and not bother doing anything, since its just a win for them.
