Yes that offer is genuine. It launched yesterday.

Re: Virgin Media Vip Pack - internet gossip?
 

Thought they'd be more talk about this, unless I've not looked hard enough. I'm tempted to call them tonight.

Thing is, I'm not that interested in the extra phone offers (just need talk local weekends and evenings).

Re: Virgin Media Vip Pack - internet gossip?
 

wow over a grand a year for tv phone and broadband... it's amazing how much money people will spend on their entertainment!!

Re: Virgin Media Vip Pack - internet gossip?
 

Compare it to visiting the pub, cinema etc and you'll find its considerably cheaper. :)

but, yes, when you look at it over the year, it does seem very expensive.

Re: Virgin Media Vip Pack - internet gossip?
 

That is an excellent deal, but I cannot afford that much a month lol.

Re: Virgin Media Vip Pack - internet gossip?
 

It does seem a lot to pay per year, but then if you price up the non-discounted cost of this package, it would come to over £120/month by my reckoning (!) So whilst £85 is expensive, it is a significant discount.

Re: Virgin Media Vip Pack - internet gossip?
 

How do I sign up for this? Got full tv package, Tv drive, extra set top box and 4mb BB and together paying more than 85 so this sounds like a good deal to me!

Re: Virgin Media Vip Pack - internet gossip?
 

This does indeed sound like a good deal (compared to getting everything separately, at least). Yet, looking at the NTL website, I can't find any imformation about it whatsoever.

Can anyone help me out?

Re: Virgin Media Vip Pack - internet gossip?
 

...then consider your Credit Limit, which is automatically £100 .

So, you have £15 for PPVs, Football Games, Movies, On Demand, Phone Calls...

I have most of them already, yet I'm no where near £85.

Something more near £60.

Talk Unlimited - Got it
Talk International - I've got 1 mate in the USA, and theres a little thing called MSN, Email and VoIP.
Talk Mobile - Got it
Broadband Size: XL - Got 2MB
TV Size: XL (Family/Supreme Pack) - Got
All Sky Sports (1,2,3,Extra)/Movies (1-9/10) -Got it
V+ HD Box - Getting it tommorow...
Second standard STB- Getting it tommorow.

I still get the 3 for £30 discount, plus a further £8.50 from a previous continuous Goodwill deduction.

So, altogether, without the Goodwill, its £63.76, add a tenner for V+ leaving £26.24 for PPV and Calls... £73.76.

:D

Re: Virgin Media Vip Pack - internet gossip?
 

I often spend over £100 per month, and I never have any credit issues?

Re: Virgin Media Vip Pack - internet gossip?
 

interesting - I'm trying to work out my most recent charges

10mb = 34.99
Base Pack + Telephone = 22.50
Family Pack = 8.00
2nd Box = 15.00

= £80.49

Now I've swapped one box for the V+ box but kept my 2nd box so I don't think my bill has changed much - we don't actually make many phone calls £10.00 last month - so might be worth me changing

Re: Virgin Media Vip Pack - internet gossip?
 

I've currently got...

Local & Weekend - £13
TV - XL - £20.50
Movies and Sports collection £23.50
BB - XL (10Mb) - £35
V+ £10
2nd STB £5

Total - £107 - get a discount of £6.50 = £100.50 (gone up £2 since new prices).

So that deal is good, plus I'd get better call plan.

But I'm guessing it's for New customers only (as usual)

Re: Virgin Media Vip Pack - internet gossip?
 

Nope anyone can apparently take that offer.

Re: Virgin Media Vip Pack - internet gossip?
 

Not just for new customers. I read this thread and gave them a ring. They actioned immediately, I now get in addition to what I already had, the full Sky Sports line up, mobile & international calling plan, and all for £15 less per month thab I was paying before!!
