Just off the phone to them. They were going to put my price up by another£4-50 a month.
I presently pay £44-50 a month for Big Kahuna bundle with 1Tb Tivo, an extra VHD box, and evening and weekend calls. Paid line rental upfront 3 months ago.
First guy offered me a £3-00 reduction which I refused so he put me on to retentions. The girl there offered me to stay on the price I was paying just now but I would need to enter another 18 month contract. I said I did nt want to sign up for another 18 months. She said do you want to cancel then, and I said yes.
Then she said wait and I ll see what I can do. She came back with £39-60 for 6 months and then the remaning time of my present contract at my £44-50 and 6 months Netflix.
No new contract, so happy with that.
So its worth phoning to save your self some money.
