With Virgin Media you can get the same with unlimited broadband with a more gauranteed speed of 10MB, most customers will find they get about 9MB. The cost of this is about £29 and whatsmore you get inclusive calls to Virgin Mobiles.
Although BT offer 0845 and 0870 calls as inclusive calls, many businesses are migrating to 0843 and 0844 as well as 0871 numbers which are not inclusive and it is possible to ask Virgin Media to add this little extra if it is worth keeping you as a customer at no extra cost, also ask about free caller display!
So you see, there isn't much price difference, Virgin Media have become expensive, but all other providers have too so don't fall for the 'Join now and get 4 months free' offers because when the honeymoon period is over, you will soon see the same or similar bills coming in and you will be left feeling disappointed at the fact that you are paying more for something that you are getting less of!
Then there is the cost and time of switching, you have to think to yourself, is it really worth changing providers?
Don't listen to the rubbish uswitch and comparison sites give out, they are there to make money by you switching and will doing anything to get you to switch!

Firstly your comparison is wrong.
BT broadband with unlimited calls is £26 a month with 4 months free.
Virgin 10mb with Unlimited calls is only £28 for the first 6 months then it goes up to £35.40
Bit of a difference.
