So I called VM and the guy said they are allowing early terminations as good will.

He said he would move me to basic TV so i could get BB for £34. But when i worked out TV with Sky, the total came to more.

When I called back to cancel the BB too, they offered me a BB only price price that matched the total with Sky. So i am having Sky TV (Sports, Cinema, all HD channels) and VM BB.

I felt bad doing it, do not know why. But i feel VM are only in it for BB (they even said they were not investing in TV as much a few years back.
