Virgin Media's 500,000 broadband-only customers, who have already seen prices hiked by up to 6% this month, are not affected by today's announcement, and neither are mobile-only customers.

This happens every year or even more with VM, we as customers may not like it but it comes as NO surprise. Just one of the things you have to put up with to get the fastest most stable (for me anyway) broadband in the country.

I still aint leaving them after all even at £100 per month is is a small price to pay for all the stuff I download.

TBH, it's not just VM. Most big providers just follow each other with price rises. Once one increases prices the others follow (albeit some wait a few months first lol).
