Seems to be a standard automated message when you ring the cancellation line. However don't go for it, you'll get better if you hang on and speak to someone.
The only advantage if the 6 month discount is that it doesn't seem to involve a new contract, which might suit some.

It looks good to me , no contract is the greatest pulling point as far as I am concerned. Every time I call , get all sorts gibbish just can't be bothered .

Not sure I'll be able to do much for now as I'm on a discounted contract

Re: Price rises this year.
Still no notification here. With the deals people are getting I'm starting to wonder if the company's having second thoughts?
Inflation could (should?) be considerably lower next April

Re: Price rises this year.
I called TalkTalk and they offered me 150mb BB (more than enough for us) + the Tv box for £28, cannot beat that so I’m off to TalkTalk.
I know a few who have them and have had no issues. Including my mother in law.

Would the likes of TalkTalk be able to use the Virgin Media line/s?

If you don’t have an active OpenReach connection a new ISP will have to install one (£30-£60 and a few weeks to schedule). Only Virgin uses Virgin lines
