Pixellated Channels
I have been a Virgin customer since it was Eurobell, having signed up in 1999, but when my current contract expires next month, I am considering moving to a different supplier. The reason? So many of the TV channels my wife likes to watch are so pixellated in the evenings that they are unwatchable. And we're not talking obscure edge case channels here: BBC 1 to 4, ITV 1 to 4, and many other main channels are basically unviewable after about 6 in the evening. It started with BBC1, with the problem starting during the Spotlight local evening news progam each evening, and steadily getting worse. Over the last year or so, it has spread to other channels, and now affects a large portion of our Mega TV package - many channels actually show a "Channel Failed" message. We've called out engineers, and the last one replaced the 360 box, but it hasn't really fixed anything. When we talk to the support line, they tell us their diagnostics shows nothing wrong. I can see that there have been many threads on similar things over the last two years, but none of them seem to end in a positive outcome: can anyone point me out a successful resolution that I can use to resolve the issue, or should I just look for another supplier? I've recently retired, and am now on pensions only, so the prices the alternative suppliers are offering are very tempting - I certainly don't feel I'm getting £90 plus worth of service from Virgin at the moment!
