Hi, anyone experienced similar? Signed up for talktalk in Jan after readying about an offer on MSE where they give you £100 Amazon gift card.

Switching from EE to Sky.
I've decided to take advantage of the advertised SKY deal on this site and so switched from my current provider EE. The deal saves me nearly £30 a month.
