    set of media packages?</p>

    It all looks impressive and not expensive, but is it any good?</p>

    Digital TV, landline phones and 8Mb broadband for &pound;40 / month - seems a good offer</p>

    It is just what you would have got with Blueyonder/Telewest. I was looking at their site the other day and some of the offers didn't look that bad.

    Where do you get 8Mb broadband from?
    http://allyours.virginmedia.com/websales/service.do?id=2

    The broadband included in the £40 package is the "Medium size" (quite how you can have 3 sizes with the smallest being medium I don't know!) which is 2Mb, that's the broadband package I'm on.

    Sounds a good deal though but they would have to be offering an absolutely superb deal to get me to take their TV (and losing Sky Ones isn't the way to go) - I had the basic package for a while as I was offered it free for 12 months, just as well I had Sky as my main provider though.

    I think you can add the 8Mb package for £7/17 (depending if your on 2 or 4Mb)

    Just checked - I'm actually on the "L" package (4Mb) although it's currently running at 3Mb
