Dumping VM'ss telco and TV will increase my overall costs marginally due to the bundled discounts. This is more than offset however by knowing that:

A) I've a second broadband circuit available for when the 50M fails - no need to go into the office or work off tethered cell phone.
B) I'll show up in the churn figures. Well deserved for the stubborn resistance to fixing the long standing issues here properly.
C) The crazy peeps at O2 are giving me a ton of cash back making the service virtually free for a year

EDIT: Incidentally the stuff about operators piggybacking onBT'ss network and BT not wanting the competition is tosh. Of course BT don't want it butOfcomm say they've no choice in the matter and it'sOfcomm who decide how much BT can charge for access. It's less than 90GBP/year to use a BT line for both voice and DSL, hardly anti-competitive in the context ofBT'ss own line rental charge.

To be honest i have more to worry about than VM's price rise, Its small in comparison with some of my other bills and there price hikes. Oh and before the usual suspects say "but your staff" the price rise to phone calls, movies and sport hit me as well.
