Contract Renewal Process
This is more of a rant than a question.
I am currently on an 18 month contract which is about to expire. I wish to negotiate a new deal not surprisingly the quotes I'm being given are more expensive than I want to pay. I'm prepared to downgrade my package but they tell me that will be even more expensive because the top package I'm currently on is heavily discounted and they can't, or won't, discount the lower packages. Basically to get the lowest price I have to be on the highest package.
I know from personal experience that if I change supplier VM will offer me a great deal but I can't talk to anyone with the authority to make such a deal without formally cancelling my services. Additionally if I give notice to cancel it will happen 30 days from date of notification even if that is before my contract ends.
Utter madness.
In all likelihood I will arrange a deal with Sky and not bother telling VM. They can sort it out between themselves.
