Those who have got VirginMedia 50mb

[Phal]

Did you sign a whole new 12 month contract to get it?

The numpty I spoke to insisted I had to have a new contract :| and he also insisted I had to have a phone package with it too otherwise it would cost the full price instead of £46 a month :/

I told him I wasnt interested :\

I don't have 50mb or any VM service now, but in my experience with any change in service they tie you into a new 12 month contract.

You get a discounted price if you take the phone line with it, but i assume it is a new contract as before when i have moved from 2>10>20 mb the contract has been a fresh renewal

*sigh* >.<


Its bad enough they tie you to a bloody 12 month contract :| why do they need to renew the damn thing

6mb on o2 with bt phone= £45 month
V
50meg on virgin with their phone & Tv = £53

12 months flyby anyhow tbh.

do they let you move house and continue the contract in that place? or do you have to pay it in full, then start another one?

I would think it will carry on.

Mostly I resent the fact that they make you have a contract anyway.

I live in a rented room in a house so I never like signing contracts since Im never 100% sure Ill still be there in 6 months! let alone a year.

I also hate the fact you have to have a phone that you dont want if you want a discount.

Its all very well and nice saying you can take it with you when you move... but thats assuming Virgin Media is available where youre moving to :/ Its not like a BT ADSL like that you can get pretty much everywhere.




So everyone has signed a new contract?

Yeah I had to. Although because my service is trashed and VM have said they have no idea what they can do about it I'm going to attempt to cancel it now.

They let you move house without paying off your old contract, but a new 12 month contract starts from the new address.

I cant really explain my feelings towards VM since I cant swear here But I dislike them.

If only I was closer to the exchange!

How did you get that?

BT line rental £11.50 + O2 £12.23 for 8mb = £23.73?

I dont even want a phone line lol
