Will xxl 120bb be going up? Or just upto 60?

If it is then ill have to remove the 08 add on on phone and downgrade from 120 to 60 to compensate and xounter attack these prices.

Won't sky be putting their prices up also? I probably lose 2.50 down the couch most days, certainly won't be going back to the sky hd box.

To the best of my knowledge, the missing Sky channels are still scheduled to launch on VM this autumn.

However, if you are talking about completely new Sky channels (such as Sky Bravo), I don't disbelieve you.

Yes for sure Sky and BT will both be putting their prices next year.

Virgin XL is already £5 more expensive than Sky Entertainment Extra + due to the fact you have to pay £5 for Tivo and there is no alternative free PVR anymore. So it will be £7.50 difference after this rise.

I'm not interested in BT Sport, I am only on XL for HD. If the rumours about HD moving down to L arn't true then I will probably look into moving to Sky again. £7.50 is a big difference even catering for Sky putting prices up.

No rumours about HD moving to L. The rumours are that all channels except HD and BT Sport will be in L.

I must have misunderstood then, in that case I will have to take a serious look at Sky. The only problem I had before was finding out how to get it installed in my flat, I kept getting send round in circles between the management company and the communal dish provider because there were no points already installed in the flat.

Cool both my phone (S4) and tablet (Nexus 7) are both supported.
Will register my tablet as primary device and laptop as secondary.
Any plans to increase this poor limit of 2 devices at all?

If you have Sky Sports or Sky Movies I'd reccomend having laptop as primary because you can't watch Sports or Movies on Tablets. If you don't have sky channels then it doesn't matter which is which.

Also bare in mind that you can only make 1 device change a month.
