Seems a good deal to existing customers automatically migrate to the equivalent new plan? Thanks for the info Benmcr

No there isn't an automatic migration. However it's a simple change to swap to the new plans.

How? Can it be done online, or do you have to phone up? Will it affect contracts/discounts etc?

I rang up today to change to one of these new plans. First spoke to Customer Service who were useless .. said I would pay £5 more ! Rang back and went through to Retentions and he switched me over and saved me £4pcm.

I had Talk Unlimited and MultiTalk 1000. I dropped these two and added the Talk More Anytime plan ..

Try expanding the the "more info" links on the quoted page. They quote 0845 numbers as chargeable, & the UK mobiles entry points you at the Talk Mobile Extra tariff being necessary. Looks as if this page has not been updated from the old packages.

This link http://virginmedia.com/shop/bundles/vip.html
says that the VIP package has Talk Weekends and

this link http://www.virginmedia.com/shop/bundles.html
says that the VIP package has

'Unlimited anytime calls to UK landlines, all 08 numbers, all UK mobile networks and 30 international destinations.'

Incidentally I get 'Talk Unlimited' with my VIP package.

Could you advise which is correct and what phone option should/could I be on with VIP.

There are several variations of the VIP bundle, each of which will come with a different Talk Plan.

The current version of the VIP bundle was launched this month and comes with Talk More Anytime.

Unfortunately both pages linked above are incorrect for what the Talk plan covers. I have flagged this to colleagues to be corrected as soon as possible.

Older versions of the VIP bundle came with either Talk Unlimited or Talk Unlimited Extra.

I rang up yesterday and they moved me over to 'Talk More Anytime'. No other changes (price, contract etc).

Nice to see caller display is still a stonking price.

Though I think the £7.25 myvm is quoting me is slightly higher than it should be :o

We are on talk unlimited would we benefit moving to the talk more anytime or is it just the same price or more?
