After 60 min you're charged at a whopping 3ppm - you can't always redial if you're in the middle of a call.

0870, 0845 are excluded and charged at an expensive rate compared to 18185 et al.

International calls and mobiles are charged at a reduced rate compared to the normal tariff however alternative suppliers give you free calls to many destination or very low rate. I.E. if you make lots of calls, Vonage will supply you a line to hook up to your BB that will give you free local/national calls and calls to several countries for free too. Personally I get free calls to The States, Canada, and much of Europe for £7.99 a month. Much better than the Ntl line even with the discounts added.

It really is swings and round about - you need to look at YOUR calling patterns and find out who will be the cheapest and in most cases I'd bet it's not Ntl.

Are you on commission (or are you a financial planning manager for Abbey?)

Come off it the guy is trying to get his head around the best deal for him - you saying "Your insane if you don't take the VIP package" really isn't going to help, it is?

The packages are there, black and white on the website, if he is paying over £85 then the VIP Standard package would be the best for him ( saving money and getting more ). There is no package available to get rid of some services and save a bit a money. The VIP package is the VIP package nothing less, nothing more. Ive told him what is best for him and if he does not want to take the VIP package to look on the website or phone them up on Monday. There is to much confusion over this Virgin Media rebrand when its so simple.
