has anyone managed to bring their BB(size M) down from £18/£9 to the new advertised £4.50??

I tried over the weekend but was told that the deal I received in June was still the best I could expect and that the £4.50 was for customers taking on an extra service. I already have tv, internet and phone. Very good offer for those it applies to!0 -

Ive now managed to get the price down to £50.70 for the following which I was previously paying around £77.
XL phone (incl talk unlimited /caller id)
L bb
XL tv
additional set top box
I can add v+ box one off payment £150, rental for 2nd stb is then 4.50 month cheaper bringing the total to £46.20 a month. Seems very good to me.0 -

Interesting to know - my deal was an ongoing one to save phoning every 3 months to renew.
I was offered XL BB,Tel & TV for £50 per month if that helps you get a good deal?Never pass up the opportunity to take a pee!:p0
