I told her about Virgin being half price for 6 months with £100.00 cash back, Netflix free for 6 months and BT Sports included at no extra cost. I also threw in that SKY Atlantic is reportedly coming soon to Virgin. The person I was speaking too gave out a slight snigger and told me they hear this stuff day in day out. She advised it's simply not true. SKY Atlantic is not coming to Virgin, is not coming to BT and is not coming to Talk Talk.
Of course this could just be sales chat but she seemed pretty sure about what she was saying.

This is exactly how I felt when speaking to them. They basically said "Sky Atlantic will remain exclusive forever" (or until the HBO deal falls and they have no content).
Unfortunately with this and just the level of service and the welcome I've received (including an invite to the beta testing programme) I cannot fault sky yet. I'm sure we will see once it's installed but Sky Go, the Sports and Movies app. The remote record app. Everything I've seen so far unfortunately one-ups Virgin. It's could be a push for VM to bring me back in 12 months.
