It isn't been done by area. Apparently all Mothers will get a card on Sunday.

What about channel 4? their on demand service doesn't show any adverts, they purposely cut them.

Whilst on the subject on the new card, can anyone tell me when Brighton should be receiving their new cards, i am being told conflicting information by CS.
I live in the BN1 area of Brighton and received my new viewing cards last Tuesday, it maybe that VM are sending them out alphabetically by region as my surname begins with B, my neighbour whose name begins with S hasn't received he's yet either.

No. (Can anyone spot a pattern here?)


And why would you care anyway? The new cards don't give you anything you haven't already got.

We're talking about +1 channels, not on demand content. And 4od certainly has adverts.

They might have dodgy boxes and are a bit worried that their free tv will be coming to an end sooner than they thought

Or they could just want the new cards for erm just to have them?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)

Will This new Cisco Non PVR V HD Box be easy to install? I mean our house it cabled up so I dont see the need to call out an engineer, is it as easy as screw in plug in and play?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)

Although self installs are avaliable for the main box only i.e if you are swapping it for the only one you have or it's your first one.

All additional boxes are tech install only
