Sky Subscription Trimming
I was thinking how expensive Sky is over the weekend, and how each year they manage to add another £1 to cost each September. After a bit of digging around the Sky site, I realised that you can trim down on the entertainment and variety packs, saving £1 per pack. I used to have all of them but with no kids, didn't watch…

What do Virgin do if you move to non-cable area?
I'm tempted to switch to Virgin for their bundle package but there is a chance we will be moving to a non-cable area in around 6 months or so. Does anyone know what Virgin do in this instance? Do they expect you to still pay for the full year's contract?

Sky on a month by month basis?
I'd like sky sports for the final month of the football season, and thats all! Is that possible? I definately don't want to be tied to a 12 or even a 6 month contract.
