Cable Forum - General Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 1.

Yeah would need to see what services you had to get a price what it would be, XL plus phone am assuming you mean TV? Do you have Broadband too?

As it seems you would have been far better off on a Collection, probably Premier but no way would the bill even be near that amount, there was no price rise in December either.

I think this was the right decision for you, Arthur, as you appear to have been disappointed with VM for a long time.

Do let us know after a few months whether you think you have made the right decision and that the grass really is better on the other side.

Don't forget to take out insurance for your new box. If it goes wrong, it will be down to you.

This thread has strayed big time! It's supposed to be about "what's coming soon to Virgin TV" not about what you pay for your services.

If you've only just noticed that, then where have you been? :D

This thread is like that. But we very much like it that way.

Agree 100%

Best thread on the site by far. Going miles off topic it both it's best and worst features.

If people just want the latest news they can use the thread search facility and search under Media Boy. This tends to filter out all of the off topic posts from other users and presents you with the most relevant Coming Soon news. Simples https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2013/02/19.jpg

She was told that this bill includes an increase from December.

She asked what price it has now gone up and and was told Â£85.00 per month for the XL plus phone.

He said that he could not give a deal as we were on one, VM are making a mockery of customers, one CS agent tells you one thing and someone else tells you something different.

We can get a better deal from Sky, and we have we are now better off by Â£20 and we will get more channels.

Yes, the phone will stay the same, if we went to BT, the costs would be horrible as we have had BT before.

Forgive my ignorance (it's been a long time since I have had Sky), but don't you need a BT phone line for Sky Broadband? (happy to be corrected) Or do intend to remove BB from your package? Either way, I am pleased you are finally getting a better deal, lets hope it works out for you.
