Ooooh... Virgin media is really getting battered, especially if you compare them to Sky's great performance in the same period.

Yup, virgin's numbers really pale in comparison to Sky.

Actually, Virgin seems to be losing steam. That 20,400 new additions to its TV service is way less than the 30,600 in the previous quarter. Its broadband section paints a more dismal picture, that 5,100 new additions for the 2nd quarter is really depressing considering that the company had more than 47,000 new additions in the 1st quarter.

amazingly, Virgin has better ARPU at GBP43.27, while more than half of its subscribers are taking TV, broadband and phone bundles.

I guess we all know where Sky got those 124,000 new customers from
