The interesting thing is, as posted in the above thread, when SKY announced their price increases this year my package didn't go up in price. I received a letter confirming price increses but my letter said my package was going up by £0.00. My price didn't budge. I don't know if that will be the same over the next 5 years but it looks promising.

I'd go for that for 5 years. :)

Just checked my Sky account, can't see anything :(

At the end of the day - ITS US that end up paying for it. So why doesn't VM let us decide

What price did Sky set for Atlantic, Arthur?

exactly if someone don't want to sell they set price very high so they know it wont be accepted so they can say it offered remember offcom have proven sky price things to high as I said all along sky don't want anyone at all to have SA

I remember the chap in charge of Sky at the time SA launched boasting that the channel would never appear on VM.

The channel numbering is such a mess - when are they going to address it? I found myself on More4 last night but only in SD (channel 147). Where can I find it in HD? Channel 203! Where's the logic in that??

In fact, where's the logic in any of the numbering anymore? Why is BBC4 on 107 in SD but on 163 in HD? (and 106 is empty!)

I'm surprised the programme makers aren't up in arms - it's an absolute farce
