Re: TV price rises
 

From what has been said i think its the line rental. Im sure someone will correct me if im wrong thou.

Thats one of reasons why i went to Sky as the discount i am getting at moment is cheaper that i was paying with VM and that was before the April pay increase let alone this new one as well

Re: TV price rises
 

Everything has gone up as far as i'm aware. Line rental has increased by £1.09, £1 extra on the TiVo fee then as for the rest it's anybody's guess

Re: TV price rises
 

See my post 1573 have as you, and a v+ and tv XL do not pay Line rental in advance & my bill has risen by 50p per month more than yours.So your increase is £6( or £6.50 if bill is in fact 4 weekly) less than mine. For a lower TV package & no V+ :shocked:. I hope you pay less than £45 at the moment :dozey: Mine will be £49.95 from Feb 13

Re: TV price rises
 

Thats for the correction, i knew there was something else as well but couldnt remember

Re: TV price rises
 

If you've paid your line rental in advance then that isn't going up, still £120 a year. If you pay monthly then it's going up from £13.90 to £14.99 and so accounts for £1.09 of your increase.

Re: TV price rises
 

So at no extra cost why can I not have 24 HD channels in the M+ package, Because it is an extra cost, Doesn't matter how you dress it up, HD is advertised as standard and it quite blatantly isn't.

Finally got my price increase, £4.09. Noticed the letter isn't actually dated, it just states December 2012. When does my 30 cancellation period start and end? I'll call Virgin later to find out.

Would any of our SKY members be prepared to get involved with the introduce a friend scheme? I'd set up a separate thread for Virgin customers here who plan to go to SKY due to the price increase. Seems to be plenty of vouchers on offer for everyone involved:

Are there any other offers SKY have to introduce friends to their service?

Hadn't noticed Andy beat me to it

It's also worth ringing sometimes , state you are with VM you may get extras like a free 2TB box etc.

Re: TV price rises
 

Never thought of that for him. I always forget about them. Chad take a look as some good offers with Quidco as Andy and MM have said

Re: TV price rises
 

Cheers guys, it's all good information to know. For me and my package it's definitely now cheaper to look elsewhere, especially if I'm going to get cash back or vouchers.

Re: TV price rises
 

Good luck. Let us know what package you get and how you get on. If you join Sky that is ;)

The Lighter sider will welcome you :D:D
