Just rang Virgin Media

nickybeal

I've just rang Virgin Media to cancel my analogue tv and phone. I've decided to go with a Sky package! They gave me alot of earache about why I was changing and insisted that they would have been cheaper.
The package I have with Sky is the following:

TV - variety pack, 4 extra packs + Sky Sports bundle £38.50
Broadband - 2mb Free
Phone - Free evening and weekend £10 line rental.

So a total of £48.50, would Virgin really be able to better this, they didn't when I rang them! They insist that that's because I didn't say I was cancelling but I hadn't decided then.

£35 for that lot on Virgin Media (for new customers anyway) last time I looked, they'd probably match it if you did "up and leave".

just had a call from their sales dept trying to flog me tv/phone (i already pay £31/mon for the 20mb broadband)

for £36/mon in total (plus 49.99 install fee) i'll be getting V+ HD box, landline (free evening calls?) and 20mb broadband. not bad to say i was paying £37.50/month for 20mb at my old house
