I cancelled yesterday after 17 years and They. Couldn't. Have. Cared. Less.

They have done all but pick me up and push me into the arms of Sky.

Meanwhile, Sky are picking up VM customers with their deals such as 60% off for five years with no contract.

They are obviously taking a sensible long term view.

I dislike Sky, but when their main competitor just rolls over and isn't providing healthy and effective competition, something needs to be done.

What are Virgin Media offering in return? The exclusive spinning purple circle channel, a prise rise and a new box that will be ready when it's ready. Its almost as if Sky have planted their own people in key VM posts.

They aren't fit to hold the franchises.
You are really off on a tangent here, Richard (and by the way, you are repeating yourself).

You are not locked in until the end of your contract. You are locked in to the next price rise.

It's down to you if you change to Sky with only a few short weeks to go until the launch of the new box. Sounds a bit reckless to me, to be honest.

If you want to fall into the hot sticky armpits of Sky for the sake of a few weeks simply because of their discounts, you should be happy.

The way you are going on about this sounds to me that you are looking for reassurance about a potentially bad decision.

I'm sorry, but you won't be getting any solice from me on your decision. It's Barmyland, IMHO.
