l know exactly what the difference is Mr K and the pure and simple question that faces each customer at the end of the day is if they don't find inflation busting price rises very agreeable "There is a whole big market of different suppliers out there other then VM or Sky to choose from if they are not happy at the end of the day with the price rises".

There have been several competition enquiries in the past unless you did not notice that.

Just for balance Mr K there are those who might get a lesser price rise one suspects as well.

I'm not defending at all i am as pissed off as anyone with prices rises, but what do i do, cancel the internet and TV and go back to normal TV? Change to another supplier like so many here threaten to do only for that other supplier to also do a yearly inflation busting price rise?
Mr K if you're not happy then cancel and i will be interested to see where you go.  |
Well summed up and l am sure Mr K will feel the same once he takes his anti-Virgin blinkers off.
