I upgraded online yesterday to the uhd movie channel but it has been 24 hours now and I still have no movie channel that has uhd next to it in the TV guide . 
Any help please.

Many thanks

There aren't UHD Sky Cinema channels in the EPG.

The upgrade gives you access to Sky Cinema UHD On Demand

many thanks

Again, that content is also in On Demand for the other Sky channels in your TV subscription.

To access Sky On Demand UHD  press Home > Box Sets & Movies > Box Sets > scroll down and click on Sky On Demand UHD

To access OnDemand content on a TiVo/V6, follow Home > OnDemand and choose the type of programme/boxset/movie you want.

Currently VM have 2 broadcast UHD channels- BT Sport Ultimate on 531 & Virgin UHD channel.

Sky UHD is currently OnDemand only, not a channel number.

Thanks for the help, when I go into on demand then movies then movies uhd they all says that i need to subscribe to watch but I have already subscribed to them , I got through to a member of the technical team yesterday who said that he had resent a signal to my box and I was to turn my box off and unplug for 5 minutes then turn it back on but this did nothing , then he cut me off , 

Had enough now I have my phone , broadband and 3 tv boxes with virgin, but I think I might go over to sky now as am getting nowhere

So just to clarify... you've added the £6/month UHD VoD add-on... and all 3 of your V6 boxes are saying "subscribe now" on UHD OnDemand programmes?

If so - follow Home > Help & Settings > Help > TV Care > I'm missing some channels. Follow the prompts and wait 30minutes and see if the programmes work now. If they don't, the add-on hasn't been applied correctly. Unfortunately, only CS can resolve that and you may need to do a "best of 3".

If they work on one of your boxes but not others, that's an account issue too.
