Well the YouFibre salesman must be right. Hes away with his commission by the time VM charge you.... Was he called Richard Turpin ?

Re: Price rises this year.

Just phoned VM in the last hour as my current contract was up next month. Used the thinking of leaving option and got through right away to a lovely lady called Amber. Slight increase of £3 a month to what I currently pay but am happy with that. £88 plus O2 cost a month for the Ultimate Gig1 package.

That is good news, tried last week and was on web chat with India. Currently paying £75 (3 V6 boxes) + what was £25 to 02 for Ultimate Volt, best she could offer was £133 for the VM bit and 02 on top.

Ultimate Volt seems to be £85 quid still so will phone and hopefully get through to Scotland on Friday and get the deal done

Re: Price rises this year.

After a lot of kerfuffle with my original re-negotiation going wrong from back in Jan as seen here: https://www.cableforum.uk/board/show...5#post36153395

I've finally got a deal with Retentions for £48 for anytime chatter and 350 BB (If I'd have done nothing in Jan, I'd be paying £100 and with only 250 BB)

Thanks for sharing, good news on the deal.

I'm in exactly the same position, £85 + O2 with contract expiring next month.

I've already shaved £20 off my O2 bill by dropping down my data allowance so I'm hoping I'll be quids in when I negotiate VM over the next few days.

Re: Price rises this year.

New deal today for 18 months was Ultimate Volt @ £75pm now £79 pm with Netflix included
Rep seemed to think the 02 side was not automatic and I needed to contact them to negotiate a new deal - is that correct ?

As far as I know, yes treat them both seperately. I've already renewed O2 (the deal at the time was too good to turn down) and due to ring VM to negotiate my Ultimate Volt deal soon

If I can get £79 inc Netflix too then I'll be very happy. Can I ask which tier of Netflix you get included please?
