Sky Cinema films unavailable on demand via Virgin TV Go

On our wavelength

Since at the least Friday I have been unable to access Sky Cinema Films via TV Go.

I can access them via TiVo or the Cinema channel but if i try to watch a film via TV Go it shows Upgrade Package, but as i have cinema it should show Play.

Using Tv Go with PC

Can you watch live streams from the same channels that you're having problems viewing VoD content from?

The screenshots you've posted appear to be from Sky Cinema, which are a premium add-on, not part of Maxit. Can you view Sky Cinema channels on your TV box? They're in EPG positions 401-412.

It's so much easier for others to advise you, if you keep to one thread with all the replies in the same place. I've merged 3 separate threads into one.

No, your TV box will not make the slightest bit of difference to your TV Go service. It's your package that dictates that.

I really dont apreciate you merging my comments or treads into one, it stifles discuasion and interaction with other customera experiencing a similar issue

It comes across like ypu are trying to limit the exposure of the issue.... its been two weeks since this has been down and even the complaint department /resolution team has not been very helpful. They have been pushing for an upgrade of the box but want to charge me.
