Does anyone know of any good TV and BB deals? My current contract with BT is coming to an end on 2nd March so I've started looking at Sky and Virgin (available in my area).
Anyone work for any companies wit special offers? Any help appreciated!

Now Broadband (run by Sky) have been doing some decent deals lately if you are just wanting standard "fibre" - looks like they are currently doing £25 a month for unlimited fibre broadband with anytime calls, which is the deal I got last year. Found the speed to be way better than plusnet (who I was with before), but the router was a bit **** (only 2 x ethernet ports).
As for telly, no idea. Haven't paid for TV for a long time.

Obviously you have to be happy to go somewhere else if they don't call back!

Cheers - I'll have a look.
PS I'm not in Danderhall anymore - haven't been since 2005 (just never bothered to change my username).

Re Virgin, I call up each year at the end of a 12 month contract, if the initial offer isn't acceptable I asked to be put through to cancellations (retentions). From there I appraise their offer, if I feel it can be bettered, I ask to cancel.
More often than not, they'll call before the end of the notice period with a better offer.
If you don't get a better offer, you can call up and cancel your cancellation, neither party is under any obligation to cancel, but, I treat it like a game of poker, don't show your hand and don't blink first!

Bag a great deal by ridding yourself of that generic repetitive mind-numbing pish known as TV and go broadband only
Seriously give it a try for a month or two. Broadband and freeview generally has you covered, well it does for me at least. You may find you don't need the full package for tele. And if you miss it then just sign up again to a provider - nothing ventured etc

Update: phoned to cancel Virgin last week as my bill was supposed to go to it’s full price of £85 pm. They offered me 6 months at £60, I declined, put through to retentions who offered 12 months at £64, declined. They called me back today offering 12 months at £54 so I took that.

I ended up going to Sky. Super fast broadband, Sky entertainment with ultimate on demand and Netflix. Sky q 1tb box included for £40 a month.
No sport at all but considering getting one of those dodgy firesticks to cover that.
