Well you say you were previously on with be broadband which requires a bt line and bt are the biggest contract restarters around with automatic contract renewall for another 12-18 months.
At least with virgin at the end of the 12 months contract your not forced to renew it you can carry on untill you inform them a month in advance then drop whatever.

Contract renewals are under review atm anyhow by offcom (even though there shysters with fingers in many pies) and it dosent look good for any company trying to auto renew or trick someone into accepting another contract midway through/ending one, and something will be announced in the next few months so watch out for it.
