Hi all,

Just to add - I signed up previously to an 18 month contract on VM with the old VIP package (so 2 boxes, all HD, sports/movies etc) - had been half price for 6 months then jumped up to £120 per month!

Virgin weren't willing to do anything till contract expired... was on holiday for the last price increase at the beginning of the year so missed out using that as leverage - then the £2 per month sky sports increase came through the post...

So I've now renewed my contract for 12 months before end of contract expiry - switched to Big Kahuna + extra box + Sky HD for approx £73/month - then did the Sky Sports season pass so essentially back to where I was before for under £90/month (less sky movies which i never use and the top phone service which again i rarely use)
