    Does anyone know if you have to sign up for so many months? ie a 6/12 month contract?

    I have done everything possible to get an answer, but nothing, no reply from the website, no reply on twitter and it's not in the FAQ section.

    Bunce..can you help?

    It's not a ****ing difficult question

    Subscription boxing channel BoxNation will be available on Virgin Media from December 1st.

    Virgin Media has announced premium sports channel BoxNation will be added to its cable TV line-up from the start of next month.

    The dedicated subscription boxing station will offer Virgin Media customers a ringside seat to domestic and international action from December 1st 2011, when it will launch at position 546 on the cable company's electronic programme guide.
    Backed by sports events promoter Frank ******, BoxNation debuted on Sky in late September with a live screening of the Commonwealth Super-Featherweight Championship clash between Liam Walsh and Paul Appleby.

    Among the big fights set to be shown by the channel in the coming weeks are Dereck Chisora's bout with Robert Helenius for the vacant European heavyweight title on December 3rd.

    On December 9th, European and WBO Intercontinental Super-Middleweight champion James DeGale and George Groves, the British and Commonwealth Super-Middleweight champion, will joint-headline a night of boxing action live from Liverpool's Echo Arena.

    ****** expressed his delight that the channel will be available shortly to Virgin Media viewers, adding: "We've got a great line-up over the coming months and a cracking line-up for early 2012."

    Have you asked your cable provider?

    Whether it's Sky or Virgin surely they can provide an answer?

    "The minimum contract is 6 months."

    Do we get our money back if the channel goes bankrupt before 6 months are up. Remember Setanta?

    You pay monthly so if they stop airing, you'll stop paying obviously.

    There was no problem with they went bankrupt before anyway. There was a line written in the contract to cover it all, Setanta Clause.
