Well it's horses for courses really. Ok so apparently I have been tiered to a doubled 30mb connection. However do note that my 50mb upgrade is not due to happen until December now and could even be May 2013. The phone will remain unused but the extra TV and the new box will be useful - mainly for a couple of extra channels that I know I will watch and the opportunity for catch up on demand and iplayer without having to sit at a computer or use the ipad. For now I am paying less per month, get an additional 10mb (all working at full speed this end) and a new tv box with extra useful stuff not available on Freeview. Come next year... back to retention and time to renegotiate. But I do agree, Virgin media is now like traveling on a cheap flight - with one passenger paying £100 to Barcelona and your neighbor £60!
