Rumours that Sony Movies will be joining "sometime in 2017" and that Viceland will be joining "in April 2017".

Amazon, Fox News and E4 are listed off the EPG.
 
Shopping from Home atm at least it is included on my TV Player M :)
 
E! Freeview on 26/3/17 via channel 100.

The pop up Power Rangers channel returns on 30/3/17.
 
It's been covered in the dedicated thread.

LFCTV currently being shown unencrypted on channel 544 (at least on XL anyway).

No idea if it's an error, a non publicised freeview period or if it's now thrown in with XL as with BT Sport.

Can people on the lower packages please check if it's available to them?
 
Apparently, LFCTV has been made available for free to all subscribers for two weeks.
 
It's free to all VM subscribers who don't subscribe to the channel (it's a standalone premium channel).
 
Pop up channel 'The Avengers Channel' is currently available on channel 708.

Pop up channel 'Pop Power' starts on 30/4/18 on channel 738 and is exclusive to Virgin Media.

Yep, it is highway robbery, my son has not missed it for one moment since ditching it a couple of years ago
 
They rang me the other day, to offer me a special deal.
When I get these calls I know it means my 12 month contract has ended, so I checked my account and it has ended.
So I politely told them I don't want the TV or Phone, they really don't listen. I managed to end the call politely and then rang retentions to negotiate a deal on my broadband as if you don't they bump the price right up to more than what the deals are on their website, sneaky practice.
I guess they know people won't bother discussing it every 12 months. A bit like auto-renewals on insurance policies.

Yip, all of these providers do the same, once your deal is up they won't be reminding you your offer period is over, and let's face it Rusty your 100% spot on in that they take it most "folks" will just be lazy and take the additional hit to their monthly out goings. In saying that I don't think Plusnet thinks much of their TV offering as they offered me it once (A few months after it was an actual "thing") and I respectfully declined........never heard from them about ever again, same thing happened with a call offering me fibre optic i.e. once and then never again.
 
The full selection of premier Sport channels (including Freesports) are expected to start in the summer.

Quest HD may also be starting a UK version.
 
Freesports has premier status? :eek:
 
- After reading this, i'm not sure if Horse & Country is closing on VM or not:

MB thinks that it is (perhaps because it's closing on satellite and VM usually get their SD channels from Astra), but it does go on to say that the premium version will be available online and on VM

It's badly written IMO.

- Confirmation that Universal and VH1 are closing:
