Why don't you use Virgin TV Go? Is Skysports not on it?The sky sports app for VM customers only lasting for 20 minutes before needing to reconnect drives me up the wall. Other than that, all good.
Morning. Moving soon and the new place has the virgin cables. It seems to be the fastest around and with a tv deal isn’t too bad price wise. Don’t need sport as there’s a pub over the road for that. Does anyone have virgin and would you recommend it and is there an introduce a friend whereby you’ll get a reward for introducing me? If so I’m happy to help you out on that.
Anything you could do mates rate wise on the price of my internet...my discount runs out next monthHi mate, I work for virgin as an engineer so can get you joined up with mates rates so your price will never increase. If you are interested send me a pm.
Recording facility goes, as does watching anything you've already got recorded.Moving to Virgin from Sky this Friday. No big issues with Sky but there is not fibre optic option via Openreach in our area, so its Virgin or putting up with continually reducing speeds from Sky, TalkTalk, BT, whever you choose.
Biggest concern is the TV programme quality, have heard Sky is much better with box set, on demand offering etc. Oh, and the fact that Vigrin have already written to me informing me of a price increase as soon as my contract ends, a whole month before I even start my service with them. Don't want to get involved in price wars and constant swapping really.
Does anyone know if I can still use my old sky box for anything at all once I leave Sky? Access recordings, or does it just basically become a hefty freeview box with the abo;oty to record a few things, or not even that?
Ah, thanks. Was hoping to stick the Sky box in the back room with a few pre recorded things on it, was hoping that as Sky keep inisting wjen trying to flog me insurance for it, the Sky box is my property, i'd keep what was recorded on there. Never mind, cheers for the info.Recording facility goes, as does watching anything you've already got recorded.
You can opt to continue paying Sky about a tenner a month to allow recording, but it's not really worth it as you'll only have effectively Freeview channels. You could use the sat dish and cabling for a Freesat+ box, but these cost £100-£200, and the one I had died after 2yrs. With all the on demand stuff over wifi now, it's not worth the outlay for a second recording box anymore.Ah, thanks.

What I did was buy a high speed 64gb microSD card for about £30 which allows me to pause/rewind on the spare room Freeview telly which can record to a usb slot.
