    I'm still not convinced he's going to be on there. I think that release is from Virgin who have probably just took the information from Boxnation's launch where they said they would have Dempsey.

    The channel is up on 546 but not broadcasting. You have to go to virginmedia.com/boxnation and arrange for them to call you. Doesn't look like we're getting the 6 months for the price of 5 at the start (at least it isn't mentioned) but looks like you can cancel on 30 days notice

    You do know that’s BSkyB’s fault? They make Virgin pay crazy registration fees, so they end up passing the cost on. They make something pitiful on top of Sky’s wholesale price for the package.

    **** Virgin. Producing SS costs a fortune.

    It depends on how long you have been with them, I change my package all the time and don't get charged anything.

    Even ofcom said sky's fees were too high. They are designed to product the platform, not make reasonable profit.

    Just got the call back from Virgin. £10 a month but don't think we get the free month. Doesn't seem to be an admin fee. Can cancel after 30 days
