saints1884 Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Virgin bloody media,Our TV box yet again is showing no programme information showing. It's been like that for a couple of days on mine as well. See if you switch the VM box off for ten seconds then turn it back on again it might help solve that problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave258 Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Bloody wisdom teeth and no dentist. Being a Sunday too, I am well buggered. I am so tempted to rip them out myself at least I will get some sleep. Carlos, I am suffering the same miserable fate as you my friend. I have found that alcohol helps immensely, hense why I've spent the vast majority of this last week pished 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yip, that's my normal cure, only I unplug it totally. Might be something to do with static building or something, I don't know, but it usually works for me! Having said that, it's irritating and I don't recall it being so much of a problem before Virgin took over Telewest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your right,when it was blueyonder/telewest,all you had to do was press the blue botton and the listings came up no problems,but now it's just a pain in the butt having to switch it off and then back on again,it also take a while to load up. Same with the volume control on the remote control.....Has it ever worked? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Henry Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Ingrid Michaelson, I think that's her name. That is one goddamn annoying song. Dunno why though. Probably the line about Rogain. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but depending on which remote you have, you might have to tune it in. It needs to know what make of TV you have. If you phone 150, some nice man in Mumbai will be able to help you, if you can decipher what he's saying! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the light gray one,when the bloke came to install VM he did say that the remote volume wouldn't work. I don't know why as he never said. I'd rather not call them,they don't have a clue what they are talking about half the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShakehandsTom - DFC Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 (edited) Our 'care-taker' manager Jim Clark. He couldn't take care of your fcuking rabbit while you're on Holiday! He also, imo, it seems, is unable to say the right sort of things whilst being interviewed. Clarky get tae f**k!!!

I don't know why as he never said.I'd rather not call them,they don't have a clue what they are talking about half the time. Our volume control works fine, but it's the volume for the Virgin box, rather than the TV that it controls. Ours thought it was 21.50 on Thursday for several hours on Thursday night, and then all day Friday it thought the time was 21.50 on Friday. It got the days right at least, but it wouldn't let us turn the channel over without manually typing in the channel number. We couldn't just select a channel from the menu, as it thought we were trying to set reminders for everything. Adam just unplugged it for a bit and it was fine after that. With regard to Virgin Media staff not having a clue, I don't personally see that changing at any point in the near future, even with the new staff member they're going to have later this month... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why as he never said.I'd rather not call them,they don't have a clue what they are talking about half the time. I've got a light gray one and a V+ box. The volume didn't work so I phoned to confirm if it should, I was asked what kind of TV I had and was talked through setting it up and, Hey Presto! It's the TV it controls, but on my upstairs box (not V+) with the black remote the remote volume controls the box! Confused? You should be!

RayBees Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 I bought "Gourmet" Pringles thinking they might be an improvement on regular Pringles. I was sorely disappointed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
