Hi Bob,

To be honest, the only place that can help is:

h2g2.Support(AT)bbc(dot)co(dot)uk


This researcher has a number of accounts and being a digi-box user is probably his main problem.

Hi, are you using the Virgin Digi box system? If so then the e-mail facility has been stopped for all new customers and being phased out for existing customers. The other features such as tele-messaging and chatter-box are subject to additional charges, ie. tele msgs. are equivalent to text messaging and charged at whatever rate is applicable and the ChatterBox facility is an additional subscription at £4.95 a month.It's very limited in scope and is designed for TV to TV chat rather than posting or web browsing in general.
Any current web facility with a digi box is being phased out and existing customers being advised to take out appropriate broadband services which obviously means needing access to a pc.
This could explain the problem you're having, it may pay you to get in touch with your digi-box supplier to clarify things, I'm fairly certain it's not an error on site here or with the BBC.
Hope this helps.

I dont think i'll joing chatbox thanks been there done that no one on it anyway its such a rip off at £4.95 for 28 days pass. if its not an error how can i open a new account just to clarify something then when analog goes and digital comes in im not paying no more TV Licence money i think its an out of date lode of rubbish everythings repeated, im fuming here, does it matter if im on a digi box and here, i dont have the means of getting a PC and i dont have the money for starters, How do you no so much anyway about existing tv email customers etc, so why is it a friend whos not long since had cable has opened up his tv email account? i give up fare well ive sent email. >>gone for now has Arnie says I'LL BE BACK!!

Please don't be angry with my friends. They are only trying to help you.

BMT is a PC user on a Virgin Media package, so he's been able to read the information of future upgrades to the system.

We can understand your frustration, but a getting angry with us isn't going to help, is it?

As Lil says, losing your rag with folk on here trying to help is not going to stand you in good stead for getting any help full stop.

*How do you no so much anyway about existing tv email customers*

I know because I did what I advised you to do, I asked. I'm a new VM customer and can tell you, catergorically, there is NO e-mail facility with virgins standard digi-box and they are phasing that service out even on V+, it's why Virgin are pushing their broadband services.
I hope you sort things. I'll leave you to it. Bye.

Hi, I'm not being officious as you put it, I offerred help and advice and as per usual, got slagged off for it. The researcher in question needs to look at how he reacts to those who offer help. I spent some considerable time looking into this for him, including phoning Virgin, I merely passed on that info. I don't see anything 'officious' in that.
perhaps you can do the decent thing and identify yourself, why create a new m/ship just to have a go at me? All those who need to know, know why I've a second m/ship here.
I really do hope you're not who I think you are.

*sigh*

Ignore the Troll... groan


What we all seem to forget is: Virgin Media is a business. They do not provide anything free out of the goodness of their heart. Where they can get you to pay, they will!

Jim, I hope you do manage to find another backdoor to remain with us via digi-box .. but I think we all need to be realistic here, and expect that things will be radically changed during the future upgrades.

At least that cannot be blamed on HooToo, ST, nor BMT! rolleyes
