Have the money saving days on Now TV ended?
Around 20 months ago I ditched Sky TV and switched to Now TV. This saved me around £40-50 per month.

The thing that's putting me off is the…

NOW TV BORADBAND - free sky TV £22 per month (always) only 12 month commitment...
This is really just a bit of advice for anyone looking for a very reasonable deal.
