The HD boxes that they are giving away for free are OK, think they're the 500 GIG ones. Isn't the 1TB 3D ready too?! I'm waiting for an offer that's coming soon, I wouldn't pay the £250.
Morcheen, you should call and downgrade your package and see if they offer you anything. If they don't, you could always add the stations back on through the website. Just don't give the 'new customer's get everything' or 'I'm going to Virgin' speels - sound genuine.
