Sky offer

If anyone is interested in joining Virgin Media I can get you signed up with me on a mates rates deal, price will always stay low with no increases. This only applies if you sign up as a new customer though.

My broadband has increased by nearly 60% from under £24 24 months ago to £38 next bill in November.

Offshore call centre informed me that 24 months is a very long time and could do nothing.
 
Have to agree with the above, I have full Sky but would never leave Virgin broadband.
I'm on the 350mb package which never drops below 375mb day or night. It will even get nearer to 400mb during the night. The service has been rock solid for years.
The only thing i can say bad about them was the installation fiasco/delays. Or the odd time you have to contact them to haggle a new deal

Horse for courses. Just moved house from a VM area and had a 350mb package. My Sons an avid gamer and I use IPTV, we had constant issues with VM and our area wasn't over-subscribed.
I'm now using Sky with a much lower package, get just over 50mb. However for gaming and streaming it's amazing.
 
I get Sky Q full package less movies for £32 pm. Got this on Black Friday last year. Got Now TV for Sky movies for £65 for year which is better as we have the app on all TVs so can watch in any room.

Got BT sports on a Wowcher half price for 18 months, £15.

All from heads up from the good people of Bluemoon.

Yeh, there was an issue with gaming due to latency and dropped packets. That has all been sorted now with recent a firmware update.
However, i still believe BT/Sky has even lower latency and is better for gamers regardless. Our house is mainly streaming (IPTV/You Tube/Sky Q), so not much of an issue to us anyway.
So like you say "Horses for courses"...
 
I have finally succumbed and joined the Sky crowd
I'm with Talktalk at the moment and have been for 10yrs
I have had 2 problems in that time,and both times it was the line outside
I pay £30pm just for broadband and the phone line,which is never used

I have jumped for the offer plus broadband
The new price is £67
So for £37pm I have the lot
Can't believe it worked out so well
Just need BT on the cheap now

OP thanks for highlighting this offer
 
Living here in Sheep’s arse I have no option for Virgin so it’s Sky all the way for me.

Never had a problem to be fair and they renew my discounts without batting an eyelid every 18 months.
 
How useful is Sky Q if you don't have sky Broadband and what benefits does it offer over an HD box?

Something is going on. Maybe the Comcast buy out? I'm on a superb deal. Sky Q with every channel they do, boxsets/UHD plus two mini box's.
Reduced to £49 last year. So i was about to phone up a couple of months a go to sort out a new deal. I knew i wouldn't get as good deal, but was hoping for something good.
Out of the blue a letter arrived from Sky saying my contract was up, but i could stay on the same deal/package for another 12 months!

Same happened to me, just about to finish my 18 month contract and looking for an equivalent when a letter came, same deal same price for another 18 months. Pretty much unheard off. Something definitely happening and should, hopefully, be good news for Virgin customers too as they will propably have to match Sky.
