    I have now fallen victim to VOOM billing issues.

    Yeah the guy said they are just gonna clasify it as a lost/stolen credit card and will reopen it for me with a new account number. I had again double checked and explained that in the past I had issues with my credit card where I closed the account and opened a new one and the charges still...

    I have now fallen victim to VOOM billing issues.

    Yeah I thought the same thing. I have had that happen where you change your card and charges that arent supposed to charge anymore still charge to the old account, and end up on the new one. So he double checked on it and said that the charges from the old account will not go through to the...

    I have now fallen victim to VOOM billing issues.

    I called my credit card company and they suggested that I cancel the card and have my credit card company resend me a new card with a new account so I wouldnt have to deal with the hassle of disputing a charge, then doing the paperwork, then waiting the month or 2 it takes for the process for...

    Do light bars illuminate each time you turn you STB on?

    I believe that anytime you power on the STB the orangish lights do flicker as part of the boot up process. What I find weird is that when I power on my Panasonic TV with my Panasonic remote, the very top orange light on the STB flickers everytime I power my tv off/on. Wierd but no big issue...

    TIP: channel surfing for the lazy

    Question about the channel surfing. Is there a way to punch in the numbers for the locals (IE: 7-1 11-2?) I usually just have to hold the channel down button until I get to the local I want. TIA, Whiteice

    ABC-HD: NFL Preseason Football : Denver Broncos vs Washington Redskins 8pm EST

    Is anyone else having any audio issues atm? I hear the people on the field and the background noise, but no announcers nor the people doing the interviews? When I switch to my cable, the announcers are there. When I switch back to VOOM, nothing. Im just trying to watch it through my TV, no...

    If you don't like what VOOM provides, why are you still whinning about it?

    Hi Sean Mota and everyone else, Like I have said before, I love VOOM. It compliments my new Panasonic 53" HDTV very well. With that, there are also a lot of frustrations myself I have gone through with them. Some of which are CSR issues some of which are providing me service issues. Now...

    Would you have signed up with current pricing?

    The only reason I choose to give VOOM a shot was the $0 down on everything. Plus with the current pricing, you are paying almost $100 a month for just 1 box. And then if you want additional boxes, the rental fee is not the same as the first box, but increases. I would definitley not have...

    What is this white dot on my screen as of today on all channels?

    Ok I will unplug it then for 10 minutes or so and see what happens. When I unplug it all, I usually only let it sit for 1-2 minutes like they usually have me do. Thanks again for the suggestion, Whiteice

    What is this white dot on my screen as of today on all channels?

    Hey all, Woke up this morning and started watching racing on TNT in HD. First time I have watched racing and it was pretty awesome. I noticed a white dot on the screen that wasnt moving. Whenever I change channels, the white dot stays. When I switch to my cable mode, xbox mode, dvd mode...

    Anyone wonder if they have raised the prices to slow down new orders?

    Just wondering, I have only been a VOOM subscriber for almost 2 months, and I read / hear nothing but horror stories about VOOM. - They are/were in short supply of equipment, thus the reason peoples installations were getting delayed. The dealers were not getting enough equipment to match...
