That's why I question the "100 per day" figure. Looking at the BARB statistics, it's clear that several hundred thousand Virgin Media subscribers are regular Sky One viewers. Common sense would tell you that the cancellation rate would be higher than 100 per day.
Virgin Media are claiming that just 0.003% of their subscriber base is cancelling per day. Does that make sense? I really don't think so.
