Heaveho, that is exactly what I have got, apart from £10 pm for the V+ box, and I am very happy with that. I am content with my BB speed, and very happy with Anytime free calls. After all, if you work out that BB on its own is £18pm and the phone line rental is £11 (approx) pm,,the TV and the calls cost you about a fiver a month!.
yeah you're right hansi, i can't grumble with that at all....was just tempted to push it further while they were offering deals. I'm just a greedy sod.

Fudge, I got them to include all of the sky movies for free (we already had the sports ones) so go for it!0

mmm, just wondered how much they'd charge me for Sky Sports, must give it a try? If you have a V+ box as I have, would I be able to get SS in HD, providing of coure, that I had a HD set?0 -
No, only sky customers get sky hd. With VM we only get bbc hd preview channel - whoopeee!0
-
yes, at the moment I agree, but if you have SS, are you sure you can't get SS on their HD channel?0
-
SS hd is not a channel listed on VM0

Worth a ring.

and got £5 extra off per month.0 -
I've been offered this:-

Phone M (Free Weekends)
TV XL with Movies and Sports
V+ Box and keep old STB
All for £50-
Anyone got a better or similar deal?
