You certain this new contract won't be hit with the April increase?
Well I asked the question twice clearly to make sure. It makes sense they aren't hitting new contracts this close to it coming into effect I guess.

I'm not so sure. Anyone taking out new contracts before April with other companies are getting hit.Well I asked the question twice clearly to make sure. It makes sense they aren't hitting new contracts this close to it coming into effect I guess.

That's what they bank on. You not wanting to deal with them.I got the price increase email this week, £33 to £42pm for M250, 27% increase.
I have FTTP in my area now, so went for 500mb with vodafone for £30pm 24 month contract with a £130 rebate voucher thingy. However, I went to cancel with VM, when I called the automated system said it would be easier to sort by text, so I thought fine, give it a go. No contact whatsoever, the next day they send an update to my contract (again no agreement from me) at £28.50pm for the same M250 for the remainder of contract, another 6 months. I couldn't be arsed contacting them again as it's always a nightmare so cancelled with vodafone under 14 days cooling off.
Faff again in another 6 months.
So I phoned up their contact number on website. Told them I'm leaving. They offered me about 6 deals I said no to everything. Then they said equipment would have to be collected and I said that's fine, then they said I could keep it lol. Planned cancellation emails came.
Few days later they rang. I said my friends can get m1000 for 45. I said I wanted m500 for around 30-40 and they came back first offer with 32 for m500. I also made sure I was exempt from price increases this year, which I am.
Seems like I got an amazing deal. The second team definitely have the best offers.

You would think. But I agreed to a new contract on January 23rd and got the email about a £15 price hike only just over a week later on February 1st.
I have had the same email. I am on 250 and paying £35 and its increasing by £7. I have FTTP in my area according to Vodaphone so will be calling them to see if they can match/better otherwise i am happy to cancel.
Specifically virgin broadband or can you just have any broadband for the on demand stuff to work? The virgin set top boxes connect back to the internet via WiFi or ethernet yes, but mine are just plugged into my own wireless router. Do you have to be on a virgin public IP to get access to the right places for it to work?The TV service uses their Internet connection for loads of the features, so you can't have TV by itself.
Had my letter through saying that my £32 deal for 200mbps and an O2 sim is going up £7.
I find O2 to have patchy signal. Virgin broadband I think is excellent.
I am wondering whether I should go for Vodafone 500mbps for £30 then get a sim only deal separately. According to Uswitch I get a £130 shopping voucher for joining Vodafone too.
I wondered if anyone had any comments on the reliability of Vodafone? If they are not up to scratch I'll stay with Virgin.
