I've been confused if to leave VM and go to Sky cos Im not happy with losing channels and see Sky customers getting always more, but I decided to stay with VM cos of the Tivo. So waited for the 500 to arrive and finally today called them.
I actually pay £.72 thanks to retention cos I wanted to leave already few months ago so they give me a discount. Everything was ok, so £.49.99 for the box (fine), £.40 for the installation (fine) and £.3 a month extra (fine) until she says, it will be £.90 a month! Why??? Because you lose the discount retention has given you!!!
How cheeky is that?! So just for a box I'll have to pay almost £.20 more a month!? I already give VM around £.200 between mobiles and XL package!
This is it for me! It's a joke! Improve your TV package first!
Bye Virgin! Hello SKY!!!
