[Closed] So, I'm just about to order Virgin media...

deadlydarcy · 2010-12-28T12:05:42Z

Want to get rid of Sky and TalkTalk...or at least try something different for a year and see how it works. My broadband from TalkTalk is sketchy to say the least. I can't believe that in 2010 I'm still saying "ah, it always gets a bit slow around teatime" :-) Will cable broadband improve this? Virgin media is in my street so no bother getting it in. Hole already in the wall for cables. I've just got a new HDTV that has a wizz bang internet connection so I can get all kinds of fun through internet TV...iPlayer being the most interesting. But, having had Sky+, it's so bloody easy to use. Is Virgin's TV guide any better than it used to be? Will I just NEVER get used to it? Does series linking work as well and as reliably as Sky? So, should I give it a go for twelve months? Savings aren't mahoosive - around a tenner a month less to go with Virgin...but that would include a V+HD box...I don't have a Sky HD box at the moment.

IPlayer Internet will count as data but not through your Virgin box

The Tivos are on internal beta now so shouldn't be far away. I'm sure you will pay to change - it will be worth the wait.

VM broadband in the Edinburgh area has just failed. First time I'm over a year though.
