Mimms Try sky if you want an all in one package including tv, you often get a free gift too. If you don't go for full tv I think it works out quite reasonable for all three xx

thats on my too do list, phone sky.

i paid to have all 3 services fitted, got the tv sorted, they were supposed to be comming back to fit the BT line and my mum got to my house 5 mins after the engineer had left
so i called back up to reschedule and they wanted £105.00 to come back to fit the phone line!!!!
i asked for the complaints dept to call me back and havent heard a thing. that was about 6 weeks ago, so its me just being lazy. going to get it sorted tomorrow.

if sky come back to fit phone lin for free i will quite happily have all 3 services from them as thats what i wanted initially but no way am i paying £105.00

so if they wont do it ill try and get a free bt line direct from bt and shop around for broadband
or see if there are any decent broadband providers i can use with a virgin phone line.

Hello all, I'm back from my shopping trip with mum. I bought nothing which I suppose is good as I am decluttering lol.

Still thinking about weidding favours, haven't told anyone yet as I know I will just get crap replies back so I figured I would make my portfolio and get word out before I tell anyone what my plan is

How is everyone doing this avvy?
Saucy have we seen the notebooks yet? I'm so excited

nikki - i don't have a BT line, i have a talktalk line that costs £11.49 pm, did you not get offered the same?
Connection did cost £30 though, but that was a one off and the amout that we were saving switching plus the cashback, i didn't mind paying it.

ETA: got the same deal s Munchki 24/7 free landline calls for £4 on top of the bill and £1.50 for 25% of all mobile calls. So in total for broadband, phone and free wotsits I pay £23.50

BAD NEWS - There was literally no ads in the paper for houses with independant landlords, just agency ads, and a very unhelpful piece about how landlords now hate people on HB/LHA even more than they did previously :mad:

BAD NEWS - My 'lovely' son decided to get washing up liquid all over the entire living room in the time it took me to pee; it's soooo not easy to get out of carpet.

SO-SO NEWS - My Boss won't let me have Friday off like he said now so no night out but money IS more important and I would probably regret my drunkeness anyway.

GOOD NEWS - I don't care and i'm still going to get everything i want.. somehow

Ooohh Babymoo, what is it?
Official unvieling will be in a bit when I've finished updating this section. It won't be long though, promise!
