No any new channels but he Sky Sports SD & HD have swapped over channel numbers, so HD now runs from 501 to 507.

Ah... you're probably right. They show up together on my box, as I have my box set not to display adult channels on the EPG

Virgin Media are currently testing a channel called 'BT Extra 1' off the EPG.
Many other channels changed places too. New list here: https://my.virginmedia.com/content/d...annelGuide.pdf https://my.virginmedia.com/content/d...annelGuide.pdf |

Interestingly/worryingly, there's no red button service on BT Sport Europe yet - presumably that will launch once all the other Extra streams are up and running. |

Fantastic for those who love sport. Not-so-much for the rest of us. Yet we all get to pay more!

I totally agree Carl.
Some people have suggested that a non Sport and/or HD XL package should be created; but others have argued that attracting sports fans to the platform who wouldn't otherwise subscribe helps to keep the costs down for the rest of us. |

Yes Virgin need action it's TV packages and also number channels too.
1) BT sports needs to be in a package like sky sports so costs are for sports people and not XL customers that just like a wide choice of channels. 2) Even with the last EPG move I feel that more space in areas are needed and also they need action with orders of SD SD+1 HD or HD SD SD+1 or SD HD SD+1 or HD SD+1 SD and not mix like they are now. After years we still do not have HISTORY HD and others that have been said are to come to Virgin so what is to come now when space is ready ? Why Virgin not brought a few channels from it's sister services in the USA yet as Virgin is owned by USA cable company ? |
