are my eyes deceiving me or did i just see a price REDUCTION? Today is a momentus day for virgin media, maybe they have seen the light that charging us alot of money and having way less hd channels than sky deserves a price reduction in order to remain competitive.

So from October the prices should be as follows,

M+ TV Package Current Price £6.50 New price £4.50
L TV Package Current Price £12.50 New price £10.50
XL TV Package Current Price £24.50 New price £22.50

Is that right?

No idea I am only passing on info.

As has been said, it's a reduction on Sky Movies, not the core package prices

It is not a price reduction in your TV sub.

So the bottom line is really it will not affect that many customers at all Ben.

I'm sure there are enough people who subscribe to just Sky Movies to make this, plus the change to the HD charge to make it worth it

If you subscribe to Sky Movies Collection, then you get a £2 reduction. If you have Dual Sports and Movies you already get it discounted.

Very hard to know if we are getting a reduction with Virgin's confusing bills.:confused::confused:

Bt line rental is increasing from the 3 Dec from £13.90 to £14.60. Virgin media will probably increase their line rental to £ 14.60 ?
TalkTalk Line Rental is £13.80:D

Line rental from all suppliers is a rip off.
