Yep re Virgin media and not accepting their price. Just recontracted at £43/month. Not whistles and bells TV but have TNT Sport (as was BT), Eurosport, so sorted on the bikes, plus wifi and telephone (i don't want or use)

Ted,
We wre with Virgin and we have never paid the full price for the service. We joined with an 18 month discount and when that ended they tried to double the price so I told them we were leaving and hey presto a half price deal was agreed!

I was with VM for about 19 years when I switched to Sky on a better deal VM would not budge, we flipped back to VM for a couple of years, then to BT, back to VM with TV etc, now pared back to Broadband only,  we dip in & out of Netflix & Amazon Prime for new TV.

Come the summer the TV will gather dust as I will be in the Garage all hours & Wendy will be working doing weddings. A local chap is coming on Wednesday to give me a free signal check & a quote to sort it all. Two firms via Check a Trade wanted almost £70 just to diagnose but will knock that off the final bill if I use them.......yep..I know that game.

Actually Ted, that brings up a good idea - get a streaming device that has internet radio on it - I use Yamahas (no, not that type!) around the house (MusicCast using WiFi) but I'm sure there are many options
and providing you can get an internet signal then you have 1000'ds of stations to stream.....

My garage is at the bottom of our garden so naff all wi-fi signal. I do have a dab radio/CD unit that I have hooked up to rafter mounted speakers - musk while I work.
