Options
Hope this is in the right place or not another thread like this. if not please move or deleted.

ok so for ages we have had Virgin media TV+M unlimited weekend calls and 50GB Download speeds (Unlimited Fiber) for about £40 a month... (Upgraded to TvIo Box for £45 a month) (Mum pays it)

I had freesat with sky (Bought box off Facebook) and connected to old dish (When we moved house only few doors up the road)..

So last year (Around May time) we upgraded to BigKahuna Bundle 150GB Download Speeds (Unlimited FIber) (I wanted BT Sports) and unlimited evening and weekend calls £50 (Now pat £60 prices went up)

I got sky family bundle HD+Sky Sports HD £33.70 a month runs out in may (Going up to £66.70)

What's the Cheapest way to get Sky Sports (Maybe BT Sports).

Channels I watch
Sky Sports (Football)
Skysports F1
Sky 1 HD
Sky Living HD
Fox HD
Sky Atlantic HD
Gold
Comedy Central HD
Universal HD
Disc.Turbo
Pick TV
Spike
5 USA

I don't really wanna pay more than £40 (Just TV) £60/£70 (max) for phone TV Broadband...

Should I cancel sky (In may) and wait and see what they offer me?

    I'm not at all clear on this. Are you saying that you have both Virgin and Sky packages at the same house ?

    So you pay -

    £60 a month to Virgin Media for the Big Kahuna Bundle 150GB Download TiVo package with BT Sport HD, and -

    £33.70 (half price) to Sky for the family HD bundle + Sky Sports HD.

    Total £93.70pm. Is that right?

    Less than £50 for all that? I don't see it...

    Where can you get all that for £50 as a new customer?

    It's definitely possible as an existing customer. Not so sure for new customers though.
