I got this in Jan 07 just as the V+ box was being launched; a few blips a long the way, but this is my deal:

exactly the same as yours minus movies (I have sports) but plus a second box (so V+ plus a second standard box)

its costs me £16 or thereabouts for the sports and wait for it...........£36 a month for all the rest - a target!

I'm on £10 per month till may 2008, xl t.v with sky sports and movies, V+, extra cable box in bedroom and talk unlimited, 20 meg broadband, complain to them and you can get the world.

Snap except no sport or movies.

Just had email to say ALL Setanta channels are now included (free) with the XL TV.

Checked my V+ and it is so. ch538 on.

Yes it's always been since the launch of those channels

Requirements:

M BB
Skysports Collection

I am currently paying £23.50 for M BB and M TV. What price should I hold out for on this upgrade? They have offered it to me for £49.50 (£23.50+£26)

Has anyone else negotiated a good deal on similar package?

Thanks!

I will scan a copy of my next bill and post it on here, its true, a friend of mine works for them and gave me free for 12 months on V+ bb and extra box plus I already had the t.v package free for 12 months due to it being off for over 2 weeks.

Im an existing Virgin customer. All i want is the Phone and BB. They currently have bundle offer at £20/month, that would suit me fine - Can i go on that deal ?

Currently paying £29/month for phone and M BB.

you should be able to as far as am aware, but i think they will sign you up for a 12 months contract

Just pulled this from the website

"Available to new customers or existing customers taking an additional service (subject to status and credit checks). You must take all services included in this package for at least 12 months."

So I don't think im elegible because im already on M BB. Don't mind the 12 months tie in.
