Haven't considered it before as the bundle discount I would lose by going to TV only would effectively cancel almost all of my saving but with this rise it is different. Retentions will have their work cut out to keep me as a triple play customer!
This is where excessive price rises become self defeating.

Well I'm staying, rang retentions and agreed to sign up for 12 months with a new lower price deal but have dropped BB from 60 to 30MB which will be uplifted to 50MB next year so only 10MB below what I am on now. Additional discounts given but one thing to watch out for is that the main bundle discount is for 18 months only not indefinite. But in 18 months time I'll be ringing retentions again! Was always going to keep the TV as like Tivo and need 3 tuners in my house. It was just the BB/Phone which was a threat but overall deal was good enough to avoid the effort of moving.
