My take is that VM are deriving more money from existing customers, the net increase in customers at 88,000 over the year is not earth shattering. It would seem that pay TV has reached its ceiling in this country as Sky are also having problems increasing numbers. Perhaps with the takeover of VM and BT entering the market the consumer will benefit from increased competition .

Ok but why did you post lies regarding their results, just interested to know as you seem to have joined the forum to cause issues rather than join in on informed constructive debate

Just been reading an intersting analyst report. They point out that, after price rise letters, Sky, BT etc launching a fibre product, You View launching and not adding Sky Atlantic - Virgin Media's churn was the lowest since q4 2003.

Looks like a lot of the doomsdayers were wrong

Or, that none of them have anything to do with this quarter's results because not one single one of them happened in Q4 2012.

In related news, VM's churn doesn't go up despite Hyundai launching a new car model and Tesco burgers being found to have DNA in them.

It's good to know that VM launched Sky Atlantic in Q4, and didn't send price rise letters. That should shut the moaners up. :)

However:

Quote:
Net additions for the quarter were 42,700 with gross additions increasing 2.8% while gross disconnections fell 11.7%, a year-on-year improvement for the fifth quarter in a row. This led to churn improving from 1.3% to 1.1%.
And I'm pretty sure some of those things happened in the previous 15 months
