I'm really curious as to how your Sky bill is so whopping.
Cancel some asap and throw this at your debts too.
Buying a Humax HD Freesat box for £200 (less than 2 months sky bill) will give you hundreds of channels, rewind, record, pause, everything that sky gives you. Obviously you wont get the Sports Channels but do you need them.
Thats a saving of over £1,000 in each year.
We've basically got the full sky package on a HD box in our living room and then an extra box upstairs too. We also have our phone & Internet included in this too.
Thank you so much for the recommendation Humax box! I will get looking into this over the weekend!0 -

As more often or not suggests there's an attempt to hide or deceive.0 -
