    Doc, what make of tin opener is that please?

    Jonty, me don't know, I bought it few years back from ASDA & I think they still sell it. Its very handy & easy to use. Click the big blue handle to open the can then push the small blue handle in to release the can top.


    Its : Culinare magican Auto

    Broadband / Phone - mine's with PlusNet

    Me pay £9.49/month for line rental (I paid £113.88 annual like Bully did with BT)
    then £8.98/month for 60Gb broadband extra and all calls (except mobiles)
    so £18.47 not including TV ( I got a £6 discount threatening to leave)

    Jeff, I am getting nearly the same offer as yours;) me spoke to one of the sales rep just.

    The only downside is I have to pay £50 for connecting to BT. As my existing connection is Virgin cable.

    Line rental same same £113.88/year
    Broadband 60GB & talk eve & weekends £8.24:rotfl:

    Why? because me said, me boyfren rental is only £8.98:D & why does your website shows £11.49. Then me said, oh no I am not going to sign with you on the phone as I will loose out me cashback of £39.

    The good sales man said : you know what I can do for you is this :-

    Discount your broadband of £3.25/month (to make it to £8.24)
    which is equivalent to £39 cashback.

    Me said that is better. Then me, said can you waive the £50 installation charges:D he said I don't think so. Me said : you go ask your manager then call me back on Monday lunch time:rotfl:and see if he/she willing to split the cost 50/50.

    If I decided to transfer to them - I'll tell them that you referred me to them. See if you can get the discount.

    Now me can haggle with virgin:D

    You can still get your cashback and give me referral - win win!!

    If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try - oh bu99er that just cheat :D
