You are allowed to cancel too if you don't agree with new prices , i'm going to drop tv and phone and keep broadband from vm , when my sky contract is up i'm dropping that too and going to stick with on demand services , my smart dns and zattoo.

Not by £5 -£6 they havent anyway they have given me a £5 credit so in theory it wont affect me,vm tv is sadly way overpriced now compared to sky.and now more catchup and more channels added to there sky go app they are light years ahead of vm

With Sky you have to pay a extra £15 for BT Sports whilst with Virgin its free on the XL TV pack whilst also Netflix is available to VM subscribers at a price after their 6 months free offer ends.

If I was to switch to sky now from virgin It would cost the same a month and I would have to pay 214 quid up front and have crappy non-fibre broadband.

Yes Sky increase prices too, the problem is VM customers get passed that one on top of the VM increases!

No disrespect bud but you don't have to pay £15 for bt sports it's a choice personally I wouldnt and regards Netflix whilst it's great to have on TiVo it's available thru smart tv,ps3,Xbox,360 and wii just to name a few.just think apart from TiVo at the minute sky tv service is far better value for money if you get on a half price deal matey

Great deal if you love sport but what about those customers with XL who have no interest whatsoever in BT Sport or sport in general.

I was thinking it was just me!

I've priced up an equivalent package on Sky after receiving a mailing from them on the same day as our virgin price increase letter arrive - good marketing!

Moving to Sky would cost us around £20 per month extra and would result in our broadband speed being reduced by around two thirds! And that with a supposed 25% discount for a year - after that the price differential became even worse.

Good to hear that some people are getting good deals either to stay or move - it seems that our package means that we aren't one of them! Either that or we are already on a good deal.

The TV XL pack apart from the one missing channel SA which will arrive soon enough in the coming weeks combined which a far superior broadband offering and a STB with much superior functionality still make Virgin in my humble opinion the provider to be with and having BT Sports on top is a nice little bonus.
