Stands back and waits for the comments .....

What I mean by this is that either Virgin do not make any form of profit, or we are grossly overcharged.

I have advocated for some time proper loyalty discounts, applied to all who fit the criteria. Say £5 discount for 5 years continued business, £10 for 10 years, etc.

No discounts for threatening to leave or saying I'm hard up or .......

Interesting that Nationwide have just such an account for their loyal savers with a higher rate for those with 5, 10 or 15 years continuous custom.

I guess not the kind of comment you were expecting but I, too, will sit back and wait for the flaming.
I agree with you both.

I wish VM would name a price for a service and you either take that service at that price or you don't. If all discounts were discontinued, then the overall price of those services could come down. A loyalty discount related to the number years of being of a customer does make sense though.


But sadly, the days of non bartering over price, have long gone and you either take part in the game or loose out by paying full price.
