I am to blame also as l pay a staggering £75.00 for VM each month, that inc tv ,bb and phone. for XL, on Sky l pay £80.00 per mth, but only get Tv, but get the whole lot. If l stopped and went Freeview, l would not get the football.

So l cannot complain, BUT l can complain that if these companies stopped giving away freebee's to NEW customers, then l think it would stop. As an existing customer l cannot get the same deals as new customers. ie my mother in law can get BB for half price, whereas l pay the full price and VM say l cannot change it.

I have been told that we have to pay the top price for Tv bb and phone to cover the cost - unless someone knows different, we also know of someone who can get the SAME package as us,- £15.00 cheaper

It sounds as if when Sky get fibre broadband, then you could move completely over to Sky and save a lot of money.

I think when Sky get fibre BB, a lot of people will consider moving to Sky and VM should start to plan to counteract that, given that ATM, Sky win on TV and Phone and VM omly have BB and Tivo and one of those will soon be neuttralised. Tivo wll keep me, but how many others will seriously consider Sky when they get fibre? Quite a few I think.
