Angry Am I the only one feeling ripped off

Please note before I even start,I do NOT think that I have been ripped off it just feels that way.

1)First the normal complaint about SKY
Then
2)Disc.kids goes ( I understand not Virgins fault but still in all adds to that feeling))
3)on demand - yer right demand you try later & later & later.

BUT what really gets my goat is BROADBAND for £10 brand new customers only! Look in my paper its there, on the web site its there, I pay £18 so I must be footing part of the cost for new customers.( Please note I know that promotions are in the end paid for by customers its all built in to costs any thing give away is "lost" in the price some were)
Ring and complain - tough luck.
Must be one of the redundant ones whom I spoke to.

We at least thats off my chest. Will start looking around at other deals

Disc Kids has gone from Sky too.

And theres the Setanta Sports package, same price as sky users pay but sky users get more channels

Re: Am I the only one feeling ripped off

I Think that a calm discussion with the retentions team will help get you a deal to stay with VM.

I know that being calm when everything seems to be against you can be difficult, but, give it a go! They are usually very nice people and only too eager to help get you the best deal!

It saves ripping all the stuff out of the living room too! lol
