Virgin HD

Will it still be possible to connect a HD box and get BBC HD, ITV HD, Channel 4 HD for free after Nag3?

If so, what's the cheapest Virgin compatible HD box?

So are the HD free-to-air channels only available if you take out a package with Virgin?

If you want the HD channels get sly HD you get the 1,3 and 4 HD also luxe tv (whatever that is) for free no subs.

Hope that helps

you need to subscribe to VM XL TV package to get the HD channels

not quite true - their basic box is now a HD box - so you get the HD channels you're subscribed to. HD channels are free. I'm on XL so i get all (inc SyFyHD, FX HD, etc) . a basic sub would get the free to view HD channels.


to answer the original poster, Once N3 kicks the ONLY channels u will get are 1 to 5. while all the other are FREE TO AIR , on virgin, their FREE TO VIEW as long as you have the basic sub's with them.

You don't get CH4 for free with sly only if you pay them 20 quid to upgrade the card, you do get BBC HD, ITV HD and Luxe though as pointed out!!
