XL TV is a great package, but it isn't just VIP customers who have been hard done by over the past couple of months when compared to other VM customers.

Sky has'nt reduced it's prices though... the money has to go in to a escrow account while sky appeals. If Sky win then VM will have to pay it back.
XL customers were already getting Sky premiums at near cost to VM, they lowered it on the other tiers to be more competitive.
XL customers have not been hard done by, not by a mile! XL pack remains very good value indeed.
