Sorry to hijack butterfly and wish you well with all you do. Kym do you know that you can have a package wit orange payg and if you top up by £10 in a month you can get 300 free texts, not sure how much but internet mins and free evening calls to toher orange phones between 7.01 & 11.59pm. The more you top up the more texts you get free and if you can't afford to top up one month, if you top up the next month you get the freebies back. Been a while since I signed up but there are similar deals on the orange web site all the time.

:hello: Apologies for hijacking your thread a little Butterfly but maybe you guys will find this useful as well?

We didn't find the Sky base (free) internet enough for our needs and we didn't love their customer support's attitude either so we switched to the company my son works for cos if there's ever a problem I have his direct line (He works in tech support!)

Sky did give us a modem I think but I'm not absolutely certain plus a wireless router (whatever that is) and MCafee security software.

Hubby says their mid level (£5 amonth) broadband would have been fine for us if he didn't need a super duper high speed link for talking to the servers at work, and if we didn't have three wireless computers which are often all using the internet simultaneously!

At one point we were on the £18 package (which was £16 then!) which is basic internet two sets of channels and free evening and weekend calls - but you still need to pay BT's line rental on top of that so it's £31.50 per month for sky TV, broadband internet and phone altogether. It's only a couple of pounds more to add some more channels.

I think it's free to set up if you're already a Sky customer - especialy if you tell 'em you've seen this great idea that Virgin are doing in your area!

the loophole with vodaphone is you can get out of the contract if they cant provide you a service. I know this as OH ended his early by saying we where building a house in crossmaglen (N.ireland) and there was no service in that area. He feigned he was gutted, they apologised for being unable to help him and terminated the contract so find somewhere they dont cover. Get a post code. Ring and say ur moving and ask do they cover ur area. When they say no, ask can u cancel as u wont want a service they wont provide good luck!
