If you move to Sky, would you be willing to pay so much, just for a few missing channels, which programmes will be covered on Virgin Central anyway????
£299 plus £10 a month for a Sky HD box, compared to £10 per month (based on XL TV package) with Virgin Media... plus as you say, after the first year, engineer visits and repair costs. So you have to factor in depreciation and replacement of the Sky HD box when working out costs.
