I was merely pointing out that not everyone has the same definition of "free".

FUN FACT: Virgin specifically tells its agents not to use the term "free", but rather "complimentary" (particularly with Value added services like email, security, etc.) because both terms have slightly different meanings. So even Virgin themselves have a different definition of "free".
So would you, using that logic, say that should I get a car and in three years the dealer gives me four new tyres for "free", they are in fact not free because I bought the car ?

So if you buy a house .. and VM give you free services, they're not free .. because you bought the house
