post office 50 sobs back

Hi folks,just a query about the post office deal. I have BT OPTION 1 AT THE MO with sky talk as well ,so I pay std bt line rental and sky talk which has free weekend calls and charges of 5.5p per min uk evening & 3p per min(min charge of 5p) uk daytime. If I change to the Post Office deal would I be better off and if I stopped it after the 3 months and was in credit would they pay that credit in cash or whatever.Phone bill at the mo was only £1.02p from sky for Dec,so is it worth me changing?
Happy New Year to you all, Paul.

    To get the full £50 you have to wait until you have had 3 quarterly bills .The two £25 credits come in the second and third ones.

    If you do move you want be able to use Sky Talk.

    Also remember that 3 months will cost you at least £29.85 (3x£9.95) in rental, so in reality the P.O. are almost paying 6 months line rental for you!!
    Who else is gonna do that?
    Plus the P.O. have a British based free call centre if you have queries/probs and no pressing 1 -2-*-#-3 etc. then listening to "ambient music" for half an hour!
    I reckon the P.O. are worth a go!
