We'll get told about 5 days after the channel starts broadcasting on the VM network, as per usual.

Given as other company's customers know exactly what they are getting, when they are getting it and what they are paying for it.... I will be away at the beginning of August, maybe I need to get it sorted in the next few weeks, it's the constant uncertainty with VM that is pushing me away from them.

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
Could there be a three way deal in which sky gets BT sports for example but in return gives VM the sky sports channels extremely cheaply? No idea of how the sports channels, deals and the way footy matches are split, so aware this could be a silly question

No, we will pay full whack for BT Sport and Sky Sports, which will most likely be £37.25 a month for both or £47.25 in HD. Both prices are beyond sickening.

Two already this year, or last year?
I just don't recall you calling VM greedy when they increased the line rental much more than BTs rise http://m.guardian.co.uk/money/2012/f...price-increase

The price rise...is actually a decrease in the discount, if you pay in advance.
The mthly charge isn't changing, as far as I'm aware
And getting it cheaper by paying in advance, isn't offered by others
