Sky, Virgin TV price comparison

Just had to do this for conract running out etc.

Is this correct? JUST TV

All general channels/all sky sports/movies/HD/ESPN

Virgin £67
Sky £71.25

Yet sky have something like 20 more HD chanenles for that money and Virgin have Film 4 HD?

To be honest I would ignore the prices on the Sky website anyway.

Phone them and say you have been with VM for ages and see what they offer, it is highly unlikely you will just be offered the advertised prices.

Especially if you have never had Sky.

Yes that's right then mate your right , sorry for the confusion , Sky is probably the better deal then if were looking at purely TV although VM do have On Demand depends what you really want , VM don't have Sky Sports 3 and 4 in HD if sports is a big thing for you.

Which is a saving of about 56.00 , you'd be better with the 85.00 off quidco and a 50.00 m and s voucher if you ordered online.
