I lost the game after an hour. Was watching it on Virgin. Phoned to complain and they said it was a regional problem. They then offered me a days refund which works out at a 30th of £11.99 = about 40pence I told them to stick that offer where the sun don't shine and am awaiting a call back from a supervisor.

I got the same but persevered with the billing department and was refunded minus the 30p for what I watched last night

I’ve got the XL Virgin TV package for BTSPORT. I probably use about another 15-20 channels tops leaving about 180 I never watch. The sooner they allow you to tailor your channels with an adjusted cost accordingly the better.

I phoned them today, after speaking to the third person and on the phone for 45 minutes I gave up, wrote them a letter instead.

Absolutely hopeless company to deal with, just a shame they offer the best deal for getting bt sport and sky sports together.

Well it's up and running on my Virgin telly so let's see if it lasts. Rugby League at 9pm tonight looks to be the only thing worth watching today.

Shame Toronto are only playing Rochdull. Should run up a big score.

I signed up for premier last time Hibs were in Europe and kept it due to Toronto games been on plus they had NRL at the time.

Presume this is being played in Toronto due to the KO time?

Yes quite decent set up over there but they do seem to over state their crowds.

I support Keighley Cougars and they played them twice last season. Both at home though shame didn't get the chance to go across there.

As of today Premier Sports channel is free to all Virgin Media customers for 2 months.
Just to add i notice that Virgin are also now showing the FreeSports channel...... for Free !!
They are going to add more "free channnels" as they are ditching some UKTV now channels.
Some legal/financial issue.
So trying to keep the punters sweet

Up tae the Clerry noo tae watch the Mighty Rovers ! !:greengrin

Be looking out for the player known as Ineligible.

Have just cancelled my subscription to premier sports, thankfully they ain't charging me for the month so I'm due them 76p for getting most of the game.
