  • We are all numb skulls! We pay SLY to watch subscription telly and get adverts rammed (I do mean RAMMED!) down our throats... licence fee is supposed to fund the 'no advert' BBC, were as ITV raise money through adverts, SKY do both...
    Everyone please cancel, you know it's better in the long run!, only got sly for the Broadband (Max @ a tenner, capped to 4mb), but that's cheaper now (o2?).

    Not to mention the bombay brian that cannot do anything basic (like understanding my yorkshire accent ;), apart from increase your package!
  • Got the Sky speak surf and talk for £26 a month (plus a bit extra for Sky + - Bless the guy who invented this), it saves us £20 a month for BT line, £25 a month on AOL broadband, and £20 odd pounds we were paying for sky. Everything works well, we're absolutely delighted. And I get to ring my parents in France every weekend so that they can hear little one go "goo goo ga " for ages.

    buy yourself a motorized sat system,you can buy a "legal"subscription for a foreign network at less than half the cost of SLY'S yearly cost,including movies,sport....etc etc.I've had one for years now,much better value for money.

    I have also just got 3 months sky sports for half price. I said I had seen Setanta were doing 3 months half price so were cheaper then sky sports and asked them if they could do any offers. I will try again when the 3 months are up and see what deals they can do then.
