Answer = Nottingham Forrest

Just be aware ofthe T&Cs below. I think it means you don't start paying till after 12 months but it could mean you must take the min package for months 13 -24. I'm probably worrying over nothing though as that sounds silly.

very sneaky forcing you to take the package for 12 months, which will cost nearly £400. I wonder what would happen if you refused to sign up for 12 months?

I think there's 2 ways of reading it. That its free for the first 12 months and you have to have it if you're in a cable area, or, you have to pay for the 2nd lot of 12 months, but only the min fee for the TV service.

Whether the risk is worth a HDTV & Man U tkts is up to peeps to decide for themselves. I've entered this one.

What if you started off living in a cabled area but moved to a non cabled one? They can't expect people to commit to living in a cabled area for 2 years - that's ridiculous!!! (I entered anyway!)
