blooming Virgin another £1 a month

Options
Just got this from Virginmedia

We’re writing to let you know about a change to your monthly bill. Now that eBilling is our main billing option, we won’t be offering our £1 discount from 1st October. But don’t forget, there’s still a £1.25 charge for customers who choose to have paper bills, so you’ll carry on saving £1.25 a month – and a few trees too.

    Just got the same, and started spitting feathers.

    Good job I had already decided to ditch their service subject to my new o2 Broadband being connected by the end of the week.

    Can't say I'll miss the poor customer service that VM offer.

    If anyone is so angry about a £1 increase, heres a suggestion. Cancel the service.

    To be honest if you hadn't mentioned the extra £1 a month i'd never have noticed. Not worth anyone losing any sleep over it though.

    The service I am getting is better than I can get from anyone else as I don't have a BT landline.
    Almost certainly there are cheaper BB providers out there, but cable BB has the edge round here over ADSL because I'd need a 20,000 foot barge pole to touch the exchange. 0.5 Mb? No thanks.

    Edit: and while I'm in the mood for a bit of BT bashing, they have just been told to stick their 20 Mb adverts where the sun don't shine.
