Virgin, cancelling TV but keep internet

Options
Morning all. From February this year I started another 18 month contract with virgin, around £60 a month for the TV and broadband. After 5 years now I want to cancel the TV, we never use it, always Netflix etc. What pointers can you give for cancelling the tv package, has anybody ever done this recently, what should I realistically expect to pay for 100mb internet only? 

Many thanks

    Phone them up and say you don't want it?
    Although if you don't watch the TV why did you agree to a new deal including it in the first place?

    Anyway if you're in a new minimum term you may be stuck with what you have until the end of the term anyway.  Check your T&Cs.

    Virgin internet on its own is pricey compared to the BT side of things.

    You need to check the TV part of the contract as to how long it is and how much to pay if you cancel early .
