Virgin Media Phone Expensive and Uncompetitive
 

Hi i was looking at virgin TV only the sales guy was very pushy and detirmined for me to take the phone service which i dont want
looking at the costs it seams very expensive eg

Virgin line rental £11.99 April 1st £12.99
calls pm 6.5p April 7.5pm
no Evning calls or £3.45
no free 0845 0870 10p pm
conection per call 10p April 11pm
caller disply £2.00

I get

line rentall £11.49
free evning weekends calls
calls day 4.6p
free 0845 0870 calls which save me a fortune
free privacy caller display

i phoned my phone company and complained about my phone if they could save me money they gave me free calls any time day evning weekends for 6 months when they normally charge £4.00 extra per month so im very happy :D

Re: Virgin Media Phone Expensive and Uncompetitive
 

No, they are a business, interested in making money (strange, that.....),

Re: Virgin Media Phone Expensive and Uncompetitive
 

yes i knows that but when other companys offer the same kinda call unlimited package and they want less for it and virgin dont follow bt is a bigger company than virgin and bt are losing money why put they price's down and if it wasnt for the costumer's who pay they bill's they wouldnt be any company's
