ditching virgin for a few months

hiya,

I've been with virgin for well over a year with TV medium, phone medium and internet medium.

I need to cut back and want to ditch all 3 for a few months, then resume when things pick up.
Does anyone have any advice on how to do this as painlessly and cheaply as possible?

I don't want to have to start paying diconnection then re-connection fees etc.

many thanks,

yogi

    I think your find ceasing and restarting is your only option.

    If your out of contract you should not have to pay any disconnection fee.

    The £30 connection could be recouped by signing via a cashback site.

    Note. Medium Broadband is no longer available for new connections.So possibly a price rise if you rejoin. Phone M, Broadband L, TV M, is £19.50 a month plus £11 a month line rental.

    It is £14 plus £11 line rental, total £25. You need to untick the box for extra channels :)
