That's for TVXL, 152Mbps BB, Phone XL
Queried that with Virgin, and they said that I'd lose that discount at the end of March anyway taking my services upto £80.
Best they could offer me was TVXL, 100Mbps BB and Phone XL for £72 (ish) or same offer with Evening and weekends at £68
Sky's offer was Family bundle, Fibre unlimited, both 50% off for 12 months, evening and weekend calls (including to mobiles) and line rental for £49.40
Signed up for that, and phoned Virgin back to cancel and they said they couldn't get anywhere near that.
If they could have got down to somewhere near £55 - £60 for a package including TVXL then I might have stayed.

I took the TV offer when I left VM and got the top sky TV with Movies and Sports with 2 tivo's and all the extras for £43.49. I'll call them up when my contract runs out in July see what they can do for me with Fibre although I suspect I have missed that boat as it was a leave VM exclusive like you have got.
Bloody good deal though!
