Cable Forum - View Single Post - Virgin Media to raise broadband and phone prices in Feb 2015

Received an email.

I am currently paying £33.98 for XXL 152MB + M Phone, going up £3 which is around 9%. or are the price changes based on the price of the deal before any credits or loyalty discounts?

Also people that are getting deals of being upgraded to 152Mb, are there still "two" 152Mb tiers? one with the 12Mb upload which I have and a slower one? An answer to that would be appreciated.

Some of these percentages of price increases seem all over the shop, can anyone on these forums clear up the confusion?

I know there are very helpful VM staff here, or have they been told to keep their gobs shut?

Any of this to do with the so called planned Takeover Bid of ITV? Is that still on the table are we funding that?

I also read Vodafone may be acquiring Liberty Global, rumours I know, but would these prices be presented in any figures in discussions to Vodafone, boosting the revenue figures, total worth of the company?

I think ill be cancelling and going cold turkey after 20years, I am going to call though and really push rententions see what happens, I hate to say it I enjoy it, in a sadistic way lol

(Crikey I need to update my sig and avatar, its been a while lol)

Merry Christmas all.
