Attn. Virgin Media customers.

Daughter had Virgin Media when she was away as a student and would
like us to kick Sky into touch and move to Virgin Media because of
some of it's features. I would quite fancy the super fast fibre optic
broadband, plus VM is cheaper than Sky.

Just one question. - On all their tariffs why do VM then insist on
everybody either taking a stone age telephone or in default of taking
one pay for it anyway?

Its a marketing ploy..
They want you to use all their services so they can make more cash.
The phone service is actually a cheap thing to supply and people pay quite a
bit to use it so profits are high.

I don't know how you decided VM was cheaper than sky though, it isn't for
me.
