    Can you not reduce the Satellite costs to minimium package for at least a short time and use the savings on the egg card.

    Just saw your note about SKY at the top, sorry. But what about just for a few month say re-activate as a Xmas pressie
  • I'm off home now, will pop back in tomorrow :)

    OK I see about Sky.

    What about oneof the usual suggestions like trying to transfer the egg card balance to a 0% card. I'm afraid I don't know my way around that because I don't live in the UK anymore but it seams to be a pretty popular suggestion.

    Good luck for the job interview as well
  • Hi Cady, good luck today!! x
