Just phone them up on 0191 5013601 and say you don't really think you can justify the increase in cost. If they start veering towards cancelling you with no questions, pull them back by saying you enjoy the service but that extra £3 a month adds up over the year.

Eventually, they should offer you £7.50 a month for the next 6 months. If not, then just come out and ask "are there any sort of special deals I can get?".

When did it go up? Did you get a letter about it? I haven't had any communication from them and my direct debit doesn't come out of my bank account until the 30th. If it's going up to £12.99 then I'm going to cancel or at least try for this reduction. I'm alreadt paying sky the full whack of £55.00 per month.

It goes up at the end of the month.

You should have had a letter about it, although some people have said they got nothing.

Setanta is the devil and never dealing with them saves your soul as well as loads of dosh. It's not worth the risk just to watch the forces of darkness every week.

You pay Virgin and they pay Setanta, how is this better?
Setanta's strangle hold on Scottish football is getting stronger and your helping finance it. Just say no.

I believe they now do broadband, phone and are going to offer some TV deal better than their virgin freeview offering outside cable areas.

Yeah millions do. It is like a far better version of boxing with more skill. No boxer would last more than 2 minutes in an MMA fight with even anyone with decent takedowns and BBJ. Obviously boxers have better stand-up, but MMA fighters are much better rounded and I would much rather fight Mike Tyson in his prime than Fedor, as at least I would have a shot at taking Tyson down to the ground where he would be seriously hampered, whereas I would be f***ed no matter where I fought Fedor.
