    Just emptied our piggy and there's £20 in bankable coins. I've left the rest to start June off. Our total overpayment for May has been £370.00 :D made up of
    £135 inital contents of piggy
    £111.98 Grocery challenge
    £20.00 May piggy contents
    £100 regular overpayment
    £0.02 to round up
    and finally £3.00 confiscated from Mr B for leaving it in his jeans and putting them in the washing machine (along with his mobile phone!).

    Well done catowen - I saw that on one of Martins make me rich, they phoned to cancel were put through to retentions and given half price package, are you going to phone them again in 3 months and say you are not convinced its worth full price??!!!!

    Are they still doing this when you call to cancel then? A while ago I heard that anyone calling to cancel would get offered a Sky+ box for £50. One person even had the guy on the phone at Sky tell him he had to threaten to cancel and then he would give him the box for that price so I assume they always have a general offer that they give anyone doing this.

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
