    Default Telewest to Virgin...

    Normally Virgin turns to something else...

    Anyone got Telewest Broadband,HDTV,TVDrive..


    I quite like the new graphics and layout on TV and t'internet.

    Wonder if Branson will reduce the prices ? Oh and he is encouraging you watch T.V. longer not very green that. ..

    Av got the HD Box buts its a rip off on the HD Channel front. Only have BBC HD but you can get others on Demand T.V.....

    Sky won't release the rights to Telewest / NTL / Virgin Media for obivious reasons.

    Sky HD is more expensive e.t.c. £300 for the box and then the channels on top...

    Virgin or NTL or Telewest cost bout £15 a month...

    TV and Broadband has been aligned with the previous TeleWest price and is now £20 a month
    It might be worth visiting telewest.co.uk and checking what package you are on, as I suspect that my TV package is incorrect and should now include EuroSport and a few other channels, which I didn't have last week

    Their deals don't look as good as Sky's, if you want phone,tv and unlimited BB, it's £40 a mth, Sky is £26 with a 40 gig cap.

    sky is misleading with their prices as the price doesnt include line rental which has to be paid to bt,you can get packages for £30 from ntl,one other thing to remember is that sky broadband is variable on the speed depending on where you live compared to the phone exchange,ntl doesnt have this problem so if you say ask for 10meg broadband you get 10meg broadband,with sky you ask for 6meg broadband but you may only get 3meg broadband,and that can go a lot slower if the phone network is busy

    I forgot the BT Bit, and as you say cable is what it says, adsl is a contentuois issue regarding speeds so to speak.
