Post by: leethefish on June 10, 2013, 05:36:28 PM
As title
We have virgin at mo but might change to sky as had a few problems recently

What's the prices people pay ?

We pay roughly £80 this includes

Phone line and all calls
Broadband
Hd recordable tv downstairs not movies or sky sports but pretty much everything else.
Two additional boxes upstairs

Is this good or bad

Thanks all.

Have virgin broadband and the router doesn't allow wifi to work all that well in some parts of the house!

Not like we have lead walls.

BT broadband is the nuts.

Gone down once in 5 or 6 years.

Have Virgin with broadband phone and XL TV/ TiVo and second box in bedroom with Sky Sports on top.

Only times broadband been down in last 9 years I rang up and got £5 off next bill. Happened 3 times in same month in March 2013 only for 2 hours each time but got £15 off bill. :)

Been fine since.

I use Virgin for internet and then just steal programs off the web.

Costs me £37/m

Got sick of paying £80+/m for what was essentially a load of shit.
