Just got dreaded letter; £3.99 increase from February. It's like a merry-go-round at this time of the year. Last year I did manage to get a reduction, but I'm not even sure I can be bothered to ring them this year...(or at least my mood needs to improve before I do...)

I've been a customer through Nynex, Cable & Wireless, NTL and now Virgin Media - is it now time to fish in the competitors waters?

I hate the line-rental charge. I actually have the damn thing plugged out to avoid all the nuisance calls. The people who I know and would want to get in touch with me have my mobile number. Is there anyway you can have the line-rental removed from your package?

Also if you just want the bare minimum...i.e. cheapest broadband only, no TV, phone packages or extras how much would that be per month?
