* I'm not sure where the 15,000 figure (and 40,000 figure) come from. In Q1, VM said it lost 4,700 TV customers v Q1 last year. Have VM just reported the number of organic new customers and assumed they were all TV customers?
Looks like the story will be that VM was distracted by the merger but is now back on course and growing.

That's what confused me , traditional pay TV seems to have really plateaued doesn't it , at Skys latest results Jeremy Darroch said analysts were wrong and the traditional satellite TV had seen growth albeit very little , I suspect most of their gains are now through its Now TV product. Sky's TV product has a greater reach so it shows there results in traditional pay TV are poor.
Sky's nearest traditional pay TV competitor is VM who if you look at year on year figures reported 33,500 less in March 14 over March 13.
