VMs pricing is deliberately vague designed to get as much out if you as possible...
When I first had a cable account, over 20 years ago, everything was itemised. You knew exactly how much you'd pay if you upgraded or downgraded. Now it's a guessing game....
Yep, seen a report when someone rang retentions, at first they got offered the half discount automated, then call handler only offered same, then 20 mins later was offered 75%, then after another 10 mins of haggling offered the full rebate, it seems designed to milk the most they can get away with but also with the elasticity to back down if it means keeping the customer.

When I ordered my current service the price I am on now apparently wasnt available, but after some time the lady suddenly offered it me. So even on new orders it seems all over the place.

For me it was the huge discount.

I could get gig1 for £64 a month, or £29 a month with the O2 sim (which is £12 month). So a saving of over £20 month in total. (more if the sim is actually useful to you).
