MOD EDIT - Please mind your language

Nothing offensive in saying "off their nut" as the picture quality is totally shocking

The 'offensive' part was removed by the Mod Edit.

Is this a new package from Virgin?

http://store.virginmedia.com/bundles...al-family.html

Seems the only difference between this and the Premier Collection is 30mb broadband instead of 60mb and no secondary box in your house.

£19.50 per month for 6 months then £39.00 per month thereafter (plus £15.99 per month line rental) is pretty good value.

It's one of the new packs. More are coming apparantly.

There's a bug on the VM site - when you select this collection, it defaults to 60Mb broadband instead of 30Mb.

I might get this collection actually, I rarely use the 2nd box and I don't really need 60Mb broadband (who does, really?)

I don't see any sign of other Collections on the way. This one is intended to fill a gap in the line-up for people who want the XL TV channels, but not an extra box or the higher broadband speed of Premiere.

From what i've heard there is but take it with a pinch of salt. Spiderplant and Ben would know more about this than me atm.
My most trusted source hasn't said anything about new packs but a other source has said 3 new packs are coming , as i said take it with a pinch of salt atm.

Your source may be correct as I wouldn't be surprised if they either revamp or replace the Premiere & VIP Collections as I do believe that the new Essential Family Collection is great value at £39 + line rental but has slightly devalued the two higher packs.

I think it's a great addition to the line up. Really good value. Top all round package for those on a limited budget.

This is the pack i'm basically on except i have 60mb broadband and it's £54.99p/m once my offer expires. Atm it's £44.99p/m even at £54.99p/m i think it's great value for what i'm getting.

Have some kids in the house all streaming video at the same time and you'll change your mind !

Not for everyone, I agree, but the extra capacity is handy for my family
