virgin tv/radio

Options
Good morning
I have been a ntl/virgin cable customer for about 10 yrs and all that time i have been getting a FM radio signal direct to my hi-fi via a seperate cable
from the wall mounted incoming tv cable box, just recently the FM feed has stopped and virgin tell me it is because they have turned off the analoge signal in my area and that included the FM feed,
its that correct or are they telling me rubbish?

    As we do not know what area you are in it is difficult to state for sure, however all analogue VM signals were turned of around here (North London) at the end of 2008, and as VM have stated that is the cause it seems very likely.

    No,that is correct,the FM signal's went off over here a while back,it's been done to free up bandwidth on cable services.

    Looks like you need to hook your V box to your amp now.
