First of all hello to all (new member).

Right here goes stick with me. I am currently a Sky subscriber, My package is as follows.

Sky+ HD box but not paying £10 for the HD subscription as the 'terrestrial' channels in HD is enough for me

Sky Sports

Sky Movies

All the entertainment packages

Additional Multiroom Sky+ box

My subscription is £58 pm

I have Broadband with Virgin and also my phone (50meg and Basic respectively). I get this for £32 pm.

Sky + Virgin = £90pm.

I phoned Virgin as I want my bills all in one place, I asked for the exact same package for the same price, and was told no chance it will be £115 installation and " about £100 per month". I then got the hard sell as to how I needed Virgin and I should change immediately. I hung up.
I was told there is no such thing as a V+ box only (no HD capability) that I wanted for the upstairs bedroom, I had to have 2 V+HD boxes, is this true.

Does anyone here know the price of this package below
V+HD primary box
V+ secondary box
XXL tv
Phone call free at evening and weekends
20meg BB
Everytime I phone I get a different price.
