Re: Recent XXL VIP pack upgrade - confused on price

You are being charged correctly.

I ask because the advance charges for the XXL broadband are £52 from 20 August to 19 September
Which is the price before discounts

Quote:
but I read on the forum that the price of XXL broadband was being reduced to £28 from September.
Yes it is - after discounts

Quote:
Does anyone know the actual date it is being reduced? It's obviously not from the start of September.
It's the 1st of September - any bills produced before then will have a credit back on the first bill printed after the 1st

Excluding the installation/activation charges, it looks like my normal bill for XXL VIP pack would have been £104.25, but from September (allowing for the price reduction), my next bill should show the price of XXL BB reduced from £52 to £28, so will my future bills be reduced by £24 to £80.25?
No your bill will drop by £2. You already get a £5 off the standard increase of £15 between XL and XXL

On the 1st September the price of XXL drops by £7 to become £8 more than XL.

At the moment VIP with XXL is £88 + £10 XXL increase = £98 (for you + £5 non-DD + £1.25 Paper bill = £104.25)

So for you it will be £102.25 from the first bill printed after the 1st September

Also, how do people get loyalty bonuses? I've been on cable for more years than I can remember (my Son was a toddler when we got cable, he's left home and got his own place now) right back to when it Nynex, Cable & Wireless, NTL, now VM.. I've never been offered a loyalty bonus. I've now found out that because I upgraded to XXL BB, I started a new 12 month contract, but still no offer of a loyalty bonus.
.
When you are on the VIP deal, you have a bigger discount than any of the Loyalty deals
