Virgin Media package

I am thinking of upgrading from XL TV to V+ with phone and broadband and wondered if anyone knew roughly what Virgin charge for such a package so they don't try to stiff me with an inflated price.Anyone help?

I only use their broadband, but you should find details here:http://shop.virginmedia.com/bundles.htmlIt gives prices for various packages.

Thanks. A useful link. Trust that the goodies are not just for new customers or I may have to become an ex-customer.

Based on a good friend's recent experience with Virgin, all you will need to do is threaten to leave them for Sky and they will be willing to treat you as a new customer and get all the discounts etc..We have used Virgin (previously NTL) given fibre optic cable in street with package of TV, phone and broadband and have found good value, especially broadband. Be careful what number minutes you subscribe for on the phone - when you exceed limit it gets pretty expensive! Not helped that also Virgin operates a very tight credit policy, demanding immediate payment from our experience, despite having been with them for years and never missed a direct debit due.

Thanks, Joe. I use the phone very little so am not worried about exceeding my limit.

We have been Virgin Media customers for some years now and find them OK although I notice the monthly amount seems to be increasing - time to review our package perhaps?Anyway just wanted to say that Virgin Media are now offering their customers cheap deals on mobile phones, for instance: 8p per minute for calls to other networks and to other Virgin Mobiles, plus 8p per text.  Maybe worth checking out if you are with Virgin Media.

We already have Virgin mobiles and are very satisfied with the service we get from them. From what I hear of people being cut off or losing credit they've paid for with other providers if they don't use it within a certain time, I think they're better than most.Have also been with Virgin Media for donkeys years and they're generally not bad at all.
