Pretty much the same as SKY and Virgin Media but with fewer channels. Talk Talk also recently added SKY Box Office too allow people to watch WWE and Matchroom PPV's

It's been offered to Virgin Media on countless occasions but Virgin aren't interested in taking it until B0xnati0n HD goes full time. Fair enough I suppose as the HD channel only broadcasts for about 5 hours per week.

Is Talk Talk as bad as people say? I don't know much about it, but I'm not sure I've heard anyone say a single positive thing about it. Isn't it supposed to have terrible customer service or something?

It doesn't have a great reputation however they've started turning things around in the past 18 months. It's now the UK's fastest growing TV service.

"Disney films and children's TV shows helped company add nearly 700,000 new subscribers last year - more than BT, Sky and Virgin Media combined."

I'd rather have it £2 cheaper.

HD is nice but it's a luxury I can definitely live without.

I’m with you mate, I splashed out on a new TV this year, shes a monster with all the bells and whistles and only HD really does it justice. I wasn’t arsed about HD before but now its hard to watch anything that isn’t.

I wouldn't give BN ideas mate!!! But i agree that once you get used to HD it's torture when you have to watch things in SD!!!

talktalk tv is great if your in the right area.

my broadband connection isn't good enough to subscribe to any non free to view channels, (house is only 7 years old but the estate is apparently behind the times!) so i cant get this at the moment. the minute our upgraded cables are installed i'll be subscribing for sure.

B0xnati0n launches on Talk Talk on the 22nd of August. It'll be £12.00 per month. Premier Sports, which offers rugby league, ice hockey, NASCAR, Gaelic football, hurling, mixed martial arts and more will also launch on the same day. I don't have any info on how much Premier Sports will be.
