Advice needed: Virgin Media Package

I'm planning to call Virgin Media and get the price of my bill down. Right now our bill is around £83 per month (almost £1,000 for the year) which I think is far too high. We have one TiVo box and one Virgin HD+ Box. I'm willing to give up the TiVo for another standard HD box if it helps brings the price down (although I wanted to get Netflix thrown in the package which requires it but may just get a standalone box for that). Below are the packages we're on:
_________________________________

Premiere Collection: £56
- Talk Unlimited
- 1 Added Set Top Box
- Broadband XL (up to 60mb)
- TV Size: XL
- TiVo Monthly fee

Phone Line Rental: £14.99

Premium Add-on: £12.00
- Asian package

TOTAL: £82.99

_________________________________

I'm planning to call the cancellations department to get the price down, so my query is:

- are you on a similar package and is this bill too high?
- what do you think I can request to keep my custom? (we've been customers with them since the CableTel/NTL days).
- Is there any deals I can say that Sky/BT are offering that is cheaper then this?

Thanks for your help!
