lol they are premium channels, you will be left with stuff like bbc 1, itv, channel 4

In Leeds it is almost all channels - even the freeview ones like Dave and some people have even said Channel4 has gone too. Initially it was only the premium Sky Movies and Sports channels but it's all of them now.

They're hoping people will subscribe to them but most will go to Sky if anything. I wonder how many people will cancel their broadband through the cable provider if the boxes no longer work - and go with a more competitive provider. Could be shooting themselves in the foot.

From what I have read most people will still want to have their fast BB from VM. I would love to understand that if you all thought it was so great, VM that is, when you were getting it for free, and now when you can't steal it any more it is such rubbish? I have a feeling that sour grapes is to the fore in many of the statements and abuse directed at VM.

You can bet your bottom dollar that loads of lads who go to Sly will get fed up with them and all their repeats soon enough. You all need to know that you are required to have your phone line connected all the time for the first year you are with Sly, just so they can keep tabs on what you are up to.
