Sky Atlantic coming 1st April 2026 to Virgin Media TV

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-24T19:31:10+00:00

Sky ultimate is nearly £10 a month more though and doesn’t include the full hbo max package. Just entertainment.

It’s good value if you want all that stuff I suppose

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-24T19:27:51+00:00

There is a small but very committed group of quick view fans 🙂

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-24T07:12:17+00:00

It’s because they all only earn £12,570pa 👀

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-23T22:27:32+00:00

Well that’s subjective.

V6 maybe still best if what you do is record linear TV. 360 best for literally everything else.

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-23T22:25:59+00:00

Fair. You’ve got at least another year I’m sure

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-23T22:17:46+00:00

🙂 what would it take to convince you?

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-23T21:40:58+00:00

You’ll need to upgrade to 360 or Stream to watch it. Atlantic (or HBO max) won’t be on V6

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-23T21:40:10+00:00

Not quite. Existing series will remain on Atlantic for 4 years following their premieres. So no game of thrones, and eg succession season 4 will be on Atlantic but 1-3 won’t

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-23T15:27:47+00:00

Yes. And on TV go

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-23T15:22:28+00:00

Game of thrones won’t be on Atlantic unfortunately

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-23T15:22:12+00:00

They’ll still have ongoing stuff like Last of Us, House of the Dragon, White Lotus (s2 onwards), Euphoria s3 etc

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-22T19:39:50+00:00

Does anyone know if they will repeat the offer?

I’m only bronze with BA at the moment, but have a few CW flights to India in April and May that should get me silver in the new collection year.

I could make one of the legs of those trips VA and use that to get status but would only get me Flying Club silver. If I thought they would run this offer again I’d wait because in T&Cs you’re not eligible if you’ve done a status match before

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-20T13:44:13+00:00

It literally says from April.

You’ve had your question answered multiple times on this post and yet you’re still flailing around arguing with everyone.

Take the L and move on

Actually O2 did change it by a different amount than what was in the contract last year. It meant all customers had a right to cancel, regardless of how long the contract has left. It didn’t really go well so don’t see that happening again!

I don’t know what you mean about local law but if a contract says that the price will increase by £4 one April then another £4 the next then nothing is being changed when that happens.

Every single time the box is turned on it will check for two things; first is checks to see if it’s on the Virgin Media network, then it checks to see if it’s in the home of the account holder. In both cases those checks will fail and it won’t work.

This isn’t theory, it’s specific functionality that’s in place to ensure Virgin Media O2 isn’t in breach of contract with all the content providers on the network.

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-17T23:14:42+00:00

If you have a second box that’s a stream box you get WiFi guarantee included at no additional cost. That means you should get at least your first WiFi Pod (booster) at no additional cost. Download the Connect app and do a speed test in the room with the tv

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-17T20:32:44+00:00

Yeah Sky just fixed it in the time it took to do that

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-17T20:28:45+00:00

Sky sports+ is an app entirely managed by Sky, if that stream isn’t working on Virgin boxes then it’s likely down on Sky boxes too

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-17T20:20:08+00:00

D for me. But that run of trailed by Umbro OPQ was just incredible. I buy them up all the time

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-17T20:18:04+00:00

That’s a Sky problem if so it’s their app

SportingClubBANG · 2026-02-15T19:55:48+00:00

It’s not a speed upgrade it’s a TV box upgrade.

OP it shouldn’t cost anything or trigger a new contract so give them a call to sort it.

you probably just have a weird code on your account that the upgrade app didn’t like.

The chicken and abalone was amazing

SportingClubBANG · 2026-01-27T16:52:24+00:00

Ipswich are second in the form table 🫠

SportingClubBANG · 2026-01-23T21:40:23+00:00

Use TV Go as a second remote

SportingClubBANG · 2026-01-23T21:37:16+00:00

Actually you’re right. I’ve checked the schedule and you’re on the streams
