        My contract has expired with VM and I called them up today for a better deal for BB & phone.
        They seem to be giving betted deals to new customers, so I gave them notice to cancelle all my services and they've just told me if I cancelle my services, then I cannot re-connect to their services again for a minimum of three months.
        Can any one else confirm this or is it a load of bull!

        The best deal they are offering is:
        50mb BB
        Free M+ TV package(standard box)
        M phone

        all for ?39.99 pm. + (one off ?35.00 50mb install fee)

        Edit* just made another call to VM and managed to get the ?35.00 install and ?20.00 50mb BB activation fee cancelled

        Anyone elso got a better/cheaper deal?

          I cancelled last year, mrs changed her mind.
          She rang up and they quoted price ?8 more.
          I rang, got box sent out next day courier service, same price as before.
          Probably was off for 6 weeks prior to reconnecting.
          I pay ?29.50 for 10mb bb and m package. No phone line as I don't need one.

                    well if you do mate make sure with vemin they try to charge you ?25 quick install fee , this is they send you a V+ box and you set it up and then ring them to pair the smart card .

                    or ?35 pound to send an enginner

                    got both quashed by insisting its to exspensive and as i am paying for the first V+ box they could wave any other charges .

                    all i will say to all is be very polite and lots of thank yous seem to go a long way .

                            Whatever way we look at it, virgin deals don't come anywhere close to matching the 1/2 price Sky for a year offer.

                            Imho, if u like HD tv then Sky is the way to go. Almost 40 HD channels -- it's the dogs.

                            If not then virgin is well good -- and with virgin adding new HD channels all the time then it's a good place to be, especially after the ruling on price drops for footie.
