				Re: What will happen to the people with discounts after the change to virgin
			 
 
			
			I look forward to seeing what offers are made by virgin media
 I too am out of contract at the end of marcha and have started to look into going to sky based on
 
 1. Price £37 v £62 is a whole lot of premium to pay for the cable broadband
 
 2. Sky HD Programmig v TW Teleport Services
 
 I hope that VM recognise that price is a factor as well as quality.
 
 However until we see the details when and if they appear we cannot really take any action. I say this as someone who has negotiated discounts with retentions on a price match basis and remember one conversation last November when agreeing a 3 month deal on the basis that the prices of the services are going to be revised (indication downwards!) by virgin in January. As we know see the broadband did not change at all and most people in contact with retentions are in relation to this issue!
 
 I would prefer not to have negotiation with retentions but am not prepared to pay the significant premium for VM and would move to Sky/BT. For me it is not an idle threat.
 
 Individuals who are prepared to pay significant more for what is essentially the same service (+/- on both sides) are what certain companies in electricity , gas , telecommunication rely on and we must make them offer value for money
