Thanks jgee and Shirley, I have arranged for Virgin to end my account with them, of course they need 4nweeks notice!
You are right jgee, Sky seem to be the most expensive, will look at what BT have.

Hello,

We are moving in a few weeks to a new build house. I am currently with Virgin who say they can provide all services at the house except tv. They say they have no wires for tv in that area.
Who are you with, who would you recommend?

Thanks
