When I heard about SkyONE being withdrawn I came ever so close to signing up with Sky because I could get Sky+ and keep the good channels, then I thought NO that's what Sky want VM/NTL/TW customers to do!

I do however thing Virgin need to re-acess the customer care short-comings that are NTL legacy, we've still got one of the early PACE boxes and its rubbish, I asked about the V+ box but they want £15/month and £75 up-front.. Now If I could buy the box I would have one but I'll be b*ggered if I'm paying £15 a month for a PVR box

Anyway, we'll be staying with VM as I have my suspicions they will be bidding with vengeance against Sky for shows like Lost, Futurama, Simpsons etc. next time they are up for grabs.
The V+ is £10 p/m if on XL, and no install fee if you keep 2nd stb @ £5 p/m. The reason there is a fee is because it v+ has 3 tuners, it's like having 3 stb. like sky currently charge £10 p/m for sky + unless you have movies or sports.
