I must admit, this is something I too unsure about. Sky have said in their PR that all they asked was for 3p per customer (I assume in total, rather than extra)

We’re as disappointed as Virgin Media’s customers that the channels they enjoy are no longer available to them. Our latest offer of just 3p per Virgin Media customer per day for an even bigger and more valuable package of basic channels is very fair, and it remains on the table.

However, there seems to be word going around, although as far as I can see, unconfirmed by either Sky or Virgin, that there was another point in the contract that specified a minimum price that Virgin had to pay in addition to the 3p per customer. Apparently, the minimum price they had to pay was much more expensive than the 3p per customer price, thus invalidating the whole 3p per customer part completely.
