exactly. Price and services are usually open to negotiation. Contracts are not. I hardly see people wanting the iPhone on O2 (or any mobile phone company to be honest) being able to say 'actually I want that brand new phone for free on my existing contract'. I would expect them to tell you where to go.
And my point wasn't moot. My point was even with Sky if you go from one service to another they are likely to ask you to sign up to a new contract. Going from standard Sky to Sky+ is a new 12 months
Even BT will make you sign a 12 month contract for a landline
Companies are not going to offer something for nothing. You get a reduced amount for your services, the company you are contracted to know they have an income for 12 months (allowing them to offer you a reduced amount) and round it goes

Would like to point out if you are only six months into a contract with Virgin (as you stated
HERE), you will either have to see out the contract before you sign up with Sky or pay an Early Disconnection Fee equivalent of £10 per service per month to the remainder of your contract to leave early
