I got the MSE deal on broadband and home phone(pay something like £5 for the year) for my mum and me and think I was asking about tv (for my mum). Didn't take it out, but received a letter after that saying tv - at half price for the year, now I think my mum wants it.

Hate to mention this now, but have you tried the TCB site? for either Sky or T@lk T@lk.
Might as well get all the facts. Just new to this so maybe you already know about it.

Well that didn't go according to plan. Sky were particularly unhelpful. I wonder if given that we have no TV and I ask for free broadband each year that they've decided customers like me aren't worth it anymore!
So, onto major decision about who to switch to!
Oh, 35p TT'd this morning as well.MFW: Was: £136,000.......Now: £47,736.58......0 -
Well taken the plunge after some research on speeds, our area etc... I've plumped for talk talk, and hope I won't regret it!!
Frayed - I stuck with Quidco for cash back for now. This is my last thing till August for cash back, so it's the last chance. To be fair although they seem to have slowed down I had quite a bit off them last year for current accounts and credit cards. It just seems to have stuck with a Morethan pet insurance payout.MFW: Was: £136,000.......Now: £47,736.58......0 -

Food shop done and well under budget at £53. We'll use the £27 for a meal out tomorrow evening as it may be the last we have for a few months!MFW: Was: £136,000.......Now: £47,736.58......0

Oh and another... I've just OP'd my £15 Halifax rewards, which takes care of this weekends daily interest with few pence left over. eBay is doing well, 93 lists ending in next 2 hours of which 5 will defo sell, and one has 7 bids that started at 99p! I'll relist them all for tomorrow night whilst it's free listing.MFW: Was: £136,000.......Now: £47,736.58......0
