New (6) HD Channels for Virgin Media!

Are you using HDMI from your box?

Or answer: Did it work before?

Doesn't each HD channel cost a certain amount more on top of your regular Sky bill? It's a rip off to me tbh.

Yes im using the HDMI they provided and BBC HD sound worked about a month ago.

No. You just get the HD package and you get all of the HD channels they provide excluding the Sky Movies HD.

Companies, not the service ;) Sky and Virgin both have crappy customer services and the build quality of their boxes is terrible, the Sky HD Box for example is terrible and Virgin lack alot of decent channels. They provide alot of channels, yes, but it's how they do it within their service and lack of in some cases, Sky are quite good at bad pricing for some peculiar things.

Does it cut out or just none whatsoever? Even since I got the HD box the sound has cut out often and the box had to be reset, but this never happens on the regular box I have or prior to getting the V+ Box.

No sound completely, purely on HD channels like FX sound works but not FX HD

I'l go check Nat Geo HD or something.
