    I wouldn't bother with Virgin's non-cable service.

    Sky charge for not using DD too.

    Like gas and electric, if I was to not pay by DD then I'd be paying over £16 per month more.
    It's PAC not PAC Code, it's MAC not MAC Code, it's PIN not PIN Number, it's ATM not ATM Machine, it's LCD not LCD Display, it's DVD not DVD disc... It's no one not noone, It's a lot not alot, It's got not gotten... Panini is the plural of panino - there is no S!!

    I'd go with Sky, Virgin are cheap but lower quality.

    If you can't get Cable then go for Sky. Virgin's non cable service is just calls and broadband (no TV), and Virgin's call prices are easily beaten by most other firms.
