Who's cheaper than sky

Hi
We have TV, phone and broadband with sky
Our TV package is the family pack so we are able to download series like 24 for free
We don't have films or sports but our bills will go up by over £20 in the next 2 months as we have a few discounts on the plans.
I have spoken to sky today and they said the best they can do is to downgrade our TV pack to the base pack but we will lose catch up and are part the way through back series of 24!
Does anyone know where we can get catch up on past series away from Sky or does anyone have any advice for me to speak to sky or any provider elsewhere
Thanks

You don't lose catch up tv by taking Variety or Original, but you do lose boxed sets, if you drop from Family.0

If you just want the TV box sets that Sky offer, you get most of it from Now TV at £6.99 a month.0

If I were you I would look up new user deals from their competitors and use that to convince them to lower your costs.Paid off the last of my unsecured debts in 2016. Then saved up and bought a property. Current aim is to pay off my mortgage as early as possible. Currently over paying every month. Mortgage due to be paid off in 2036 hoping to get it paid off much earlier. Set up my own bespoke spreadsheet to manage my money.0

Specifically boxed sets and movies - buy good old fashioned DVDs/Blu Rays at a good price, watch them, and sell them again on eBay for example.0 -

If you choose Now TV, you can also reduce the price by buying a 3 month Entertainment Pass for £15 (or 5 months for £25) , from retailers such as Argos, Game, Currys, ShopTo.net (also available at other good retailers!
)
There are also some very good offers around at present for Now TV boxes, with inclusive passes below the price of the passes alone, due to Now TV introducing a new box next month.0 -
Still searching for Universal but, apart from thatTheir - possessive pronoun (owned by them e.g. "They locked their car").
They're - colloquial/abbreviated version of 'They are'
There - noun (location other than here e.g. "You can buy groceries there") OR adverb (in or at that place e.g. "They have lived there for years") OR adverb (to or towards that place e.g. "Go there at noon") OR adverb (in that matter e.g. " I agree with you there").0
