Very true. As posted the other day, SKY are expected to release over 100,000 12 month half price codes in the summer. Here is what you could pay, based on the deal I have:
£27.75 For SKY World (SKY Sports and SKY Movies included)
£5.12 for HD package
£15.45 BT line rental
£15.00 for BT Broadband (BT Sports included)
=
£66.32 per month for a year then back to full price. Of course you could then cancel some services, being out of contract, and look elsewhere for a better deal.
If BT Sports isn't added to the XL or VIP package on Virgin, things face getting real expensive. A VIP customer who wants BT Sports in HD is facing a monthly subscription fee of almost £129.00 per month, plus £2 or £3 extra being the rumored price increase for SKY Sports in the summer. Surely nobody thinks almost £132.00 per month for TV, broadband and telephone is good value? Especially if you can get a similar service for half the price. What is more important? Your bank balance or custom to Virgin?
