I did ask for this dead v6 box to be replaced but engineer told me he didn't know anything about it and would get into trouble swapping it.
Update on Saturday I contacted the vm chat about the uhd sky sports channels the person told me I already subscribe to them and asked me to switch over to them and behold they are not active omg why is it these chats I have had telling me there on my account but can't see them

Good grief. What did they say when you said they weren't showing for you?
Make sure that they aren't charging you.

I meant make sure they aren't charging you the additional fee for the UHD channels (as opposed to the extra box) if they say you're receiving them, but aren't.
If you don't need the 2nd box, it might be worth checking to see if you'd save money by getting rid of it.

If you haven't bought Sky Sports UHD then the channels won't work.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
Last night 100 was displaying as BBC three is on the move. Info showed that it was moving to 113. This has since been removed and corrected back to Must see Virgin TV..
Things to come?

That would make BBC Three HD within the top 24 slots that Virgin need to do by September.
But if I was the EPG boss for Virgin I would move BBC Three to channel 108 with BBC Four (Set to close by 2025) to Channel 113. With Local TV moving from Channel 159 to Channel 107/120 and moving ITVBe +1 to Channel 176.
---------- Post added at 17:37 ---------- Previous post was at 16:59 ----------
would be like this:
England:
107. Local TV
108. BBC THREE HD
113. BBC Four HD
161. BBC ALBA HD
162. BBC Scotland HD
166. S4C HD
176. ITVBe +1
Scotland:
107. BBC Scotland HD
108. BBC THREE HD
113. BBC Four HD
120. BBC ALBA HD
166. S4C HD
176. ITVBe +1
Wales:
107. Channel 4 HD
108. BBC THREE HD
113. BBC Four HD
120. Local TV
161. BBC ALBA HD
162. BBC Scotland HD
176. ITVBe +1
N. Ireland:
107. Local TV
108. BBC THREE HD
113. BBC Four HD
161. BBC ALBA HD
162. BBC Scotland HD
166. S4C HD
176. ITVBe +1

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
Not sure why BBC3 is needed, when so many of it's programmes are repeated on BBC1/2.

I wondered what had happened. I can't see the channel names in my recordings, so went by the colours.
I'll have to get used to them again, but the World Service used to be red, now I can't really see a colour at all. I wish they'd have left things as they were tbh.

I'd imagine some Kids content will remain on main ITV channel for its PSB obligations. Tends to be weekend mornings at the moment, I think.
