Virgin moving to 18 month contracts?

ISP Review is reporting that Virgin Media are planning two imminent changes. Firstly, the 516Mbps plan will no longer be “exclusive” to their TV bundles and can soon be purchased as a normal broadband package. Secondly, the 516Mbps Oomph TV bundle will at the same time be upgraded for free to offer 600Mbps (probably with the same upload as before) – you won’t be able to get this speed without TV (most likely to keep Oomph subscribers happy, given what they pay). Mind you, I'm on Oomph and I'm rarely seeing speeds even half of what I pay for
The changes are expected to be announced at some point around the end of June. At the same time ISP Review believes that Virgin Media will probably make a few other changes to their packages, such as possibly switching from 12 to 18 month contract terms and removing the install cost of a v6.
