How much did 50meg cost?
 
Can I just ask how much did it cost existing customers with Virgin?

what did it cost them for the 50meg broadband?

Just rang them up about it now that i can get the 50meg in my area and was quoted £19 a mth on my current package, or if i signed a 12mth contract they would do it for £10 a mth this was no problem and asked to be upgraded only to be told that it would cost me a one of payment of £50 for the activiation!!

Has anyone else had the charge? or has anyone managed to have it wavered?

Besically they are charging everyone that £50 install, even me as a new customer they charged £80 for my installation (but then got £50 credit for ordering online).

50Mb is £50 activation and £30 install you got it free as promotion but the £50 will stand if you want it get it today as you will get the install free. dependent on your package depends n the cost max it should cost is extra £15

So have they dropped the £30 install charge or is this just a special time offer? I phoned up 2 weeks ago and was told it was £80 in total. Would be interested if it was £50.

How did you get round paying it then and are you sure they have not just added to your next bill, might be an good idea to ring up and check.

Can we not get into this again... Basically he had it, canceled, got it again and was refunded his £80 the first time when he canceled and they re-activated it for free, thus he essentially never paid the £80 setup/activation.

No phone or TV.
