"The VIP revamp has been completed as far as I'm aware - it's the VIP 50 with the inclusive HD Bolt on"

"There isn't any change to the VIP bundle with 20Mbit - so if you have been give a six month reduction on that, then the bundle will return to it's original price after that period - or as close to it after the Sky SD premium price changes that are due before the end of the year"

This was a from Virgin employee who is usually correct with his postings and if this is correct it is VERY,VERY disappointing, especially as people have signed up to a new 12 month contract when they will only get the HD sports & movie channels free for 6 months. It feels like a bit of a con to be honest. There is not a lot I can do about it for 12 months but if true I will be reviewing my options in 12 months time.

Can you verify or deny this statement?

it doesnt mention anything about the discount only being for 6 months here
