Virgin Fibre- 200MB for £21/m?

Hi.  Just checking whether anyone else has got any cheaper offers?

Was on 100MB with no Landline or TV for £15/mth as a 12m retention deal.  Pretty happy with current service and speed.  Just phoned up cancellations and the best ive been offered is 200MB for £21 on an 18m contract.

    about 17 months ago I joint Virgin Media 108 mb with (VOIP) landline with weekend calls £23.50 a month and £100 credit, After 18 Months it goes to £51 a month, which runs out on 8th July.

    I phoned on Saturday trying to get a deal, I wanted to stay from £20-£22 a month. They offered same deal at £26 a month. I refused and asked them to cancel it.

    They phoned back yesterday and asked me why I was leaving and wanted feedback, I told them because of price, they offered same deal for 18 months £18 a month. On Saturday if they offered been £20-22 month I would have taken the deal.

    I've agreed to the new offer so happy :-) . With my Fibre max I can get is probably 35MB.

    Just off phone with retentions after cancelling last week offering broadband only for following prices

    100MB £16
    200MB £21
    350MB £28

    so seems consistent with those above and I've stuck with the 350MB
