Just found SD1 and SD2 on channels 409/410.
Watching Zathura at the moment - pixelation and sound dropping out all the time

Trust Virgin

Not here in Brimingham and according to 151 a national problem with the Sly Movies Services

red button not working (but no pin needed for 403!)

after waiting 20 minutes for a answer ( and pressing it a number of times unsuccessfully) finally get through admd ten seconds later it works without any action by VM

The fact that 403 is straight through without red button and pin is strange ( I still think someone is tinkering and not saying)

Strange though SD2 EPG says United 93 and showing Doom

Sky Correct VM EPG Wrong

VM and BT both magically fix issues after you come off the phone with a complaint even though they claim to find nothing wrong in my own experiences.

This must be Sky's fault, it's certain that Sky will take full "advantage" of this error to sign up millions more disgruntled cable viewers!

403 is Sky Movies Family and only shows U and PG rated films which are not affected by any watershed regulations.

So are these new channels still the same as the other ones where you have to enter your pin?
