£49 V+ price ends tomorrow

As the titles says. The £49 V+ install price is NOT being extended into October.

So if you want it for £49 I would order asap

Re: £49 V+ price ends tomorrow

It never was £49 really, it was only that price for existing customers if you agreed to pay an extra £60 or so a year to keep your existing STB.

Dunno if i've missed somthing, but last time i checked...

You get the samsung V box free on virgin.
The V+ (HD) is what you have to pay for, im sure the free box on sky isn't HD is it?

...also the dish is irrelivent in your post if you ask me as you don't need it for Virgin. (i mean that in a nice way though )

My parents are on their 4th box in about 18 years with Sky. 1 analogue box, 2normal Sky boxes and now a Sky HD box. They've never had to pay for a repair or replacement and only had to pay £40 odd quid for the HD box.

No they don't http://www.sky.com/portal/site/skyco...g?prospect=new

The Sky+HD box is £49 - if you take out the HD subscription for an extra £9.75 a month

You then have to pay £30 installation - unless you also take out Multiroom for another £9.75 a month

So to get the Sky+HD box for £49 as a new customer you have to pay £19.50 a month on top of any Sky Mix you go for

No different from Sky in that respect - and they then charge you £30 installation on top of the price they advertise, and then only if you take multiroom

So for an existing customer a standard Sky+ box if you decided not to take multiroom could be £149 + £60 installation - so £209!

A Sky+HD if you don't take multiroom costs £109 (£49 + £60 install) and then an extra £9.75 a month

Yes - the price you pay for the V+ is the installation. So it's £49 including install not plus install
