    It's not a matter of not having the structure in place its a more of being able to make this a success.

    Even the biggest fights are not just sold on name value. Names alone dont sell PPV's. It takes good hype shows, marketing, advertising and more. How can I have not seen one advert yet. The fight should of been advertised during Friday Fight Night on Sky Sports. It should be advertised during WWE Programming and UFC coverage on ESPN.

    I think occasionally you get someone who doesn't want to seem like they don't know anything about their product so they just say whatever the customer wants to hear. Not good practice but it happens:huh

    Sorry:yep
    Just that it would be a bummer if people went and ordered the streaming version and then it pops up on the Virgin platform in a few days. At least wait till Friday.

  13. my biggest worry is that they take more from your account then they're entitled to

    then it becomes a nightmere to contact them

    i'm gonna wait for what happens after this, will they be solid, reliable and stay around or will they rip people off take alotta money out of their account then do a runner

    I paid by credit card and checked to see what was due to come out; it was the correct amount. As long as you pay by credit card, if they were to take more (unlikely), you could claim it back anyway.

    I've paid using Direct Debit but the payment hasn't came out yet. Anyone else used this method?
