Re: VIP/VIP+ New and Improved VIP Package

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.

You've had :

All the basic HD channels - no extra charge

ESPN (inc HD ) - no extra charge

TV Choice on demand - no extra charge

Music On Demand - no extra charge


All this with more inclusive HD channels coming, including Sky1.

You've never had it so good
