    Looking to reduce package or change provider after a sneaky price rise from V :mad:

    Notification e-mail of my next bill came thru and it's over £5 more than what is / was usual... I thought haud oan a minute... whit???

    Called em up and apparently it's due to a discount coming to an end???
    Told em I wasn't aware of this and that I am not a happy bunny, what can they do to reduce this as when I signed up for my current deal I did stress how much I was willing to pay and this increase is too much...

    Apparently they can't offer any further reduction on it, it is what it is :eek:
    This is the first time ever that V have really let me down, not happy and looking to change, which is another first...

    Going to check on here for who has best deals for new customers...

    Hope you good folks are having a grand weekend :D

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    OK, result, a £50 credit applied to my account :D
    Which is a nice wee bonus.
    Unfortunately they cannot reduce or discount any further, as I'm already on a discounted package... and dropping to next package down will lose that discount and end up costing more in the long run.
    So... when my contract is up for renewal I will look at what else is available... possibly just a broadband and phone deal.

    IRIS – Goo Goo Dolls

    And I'd give up forever to touch you
    'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
    You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
    And I don't want to go home right now

    And all I can taste is this moment
    And all I can breathe is your life
    And sooner or later it's over
    I just don't wanna miss you tonight

    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's meant to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am

    And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
    Or the moment of truth in your lies
    When everything feels like the movies
    Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive

    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's meant to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am

    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's meant to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am

    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's meant to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am

    I just want you to know who I am
    I just want you to know who I am
    I just want you to know who I am
