Virgin Media - New customer

[CSK423]

I'm moving to a new property which has the option of sky or VM.

I've always had Sky in the past circa 14yrs purely because VM hasn't been available in previous properties.

VM are doing the VIP bundle for £79/mth £25 set up. this is the all in package with 2 boxes. I would ideally need 3 and even possibly 4, however it's £7.50mth per extra box (don't have too much of an issue with this) however it's £49.50 set up per additional box.

A 12month contract for 3 boxes is pushing £1,200 including the set up fees.

How willing are VM to negotiate to attract first time VM buyers ??

Have you looked at using something like QuidCo to offset the cost ?

do you know an existing customer? They can refer you and you both get credit onto your account..

I did this for my parents and the deal they got was much better than mine as the chap that rang them was up for a negotiation and wanted their business.

If you haven't got someone to refer you drop me a PM. Its worth a go as you'll be speaking to a dedicated referral department and not the general sales call centre.

thanks, I'll explore both.
