Yes - Sky require Virgin to charge a certain amount for the channels and that is what Virgin then charge the customers. If Sky put that up Virgin have to as well

You will see that the only people who will pay more for Sky Sports are those who take at least 4 Entertainment Packs as well as the Sports.In fact, many Sky customers only taking Sports 1 OR 2 will be paying less. and most taking 1 AND 2 will pay no increase whatsoever.

If you also notice that Sky have now put all the core mix prices up by £1 - so are subsidising the Premium channels by charging customers more on other services
Also on Virgin M and M+ customers aren't having a price change either - so equivalent to the 1/2 mix thing on Sky

It looks like VM are trying to con us!

And your proof for that (apart from Sky charging their own customers a different price) would be.......?
