Advice please!! Broadband and landline

Stephh123

I am looking at trying to get the cost of my Tv, broadband and line rental down.

Currently we have sky tv although are unable to receive their phone / broadband as we do not have a bt line in our house. We therefore have virgin for that. We are also signed up separately to bt sport.

We want to keep our sky tv and I have managed to negotiate a 30 pound saving per month.

In addition we Currently we pay £58 for 50mb, landline and tivo with virgin. We do not need the tivo!

Bt sport is another £27.

Are there any alternatives available that you know of where I can combine all of this? Do I need a bt line? How easy / expensive is this.

I really appreciate your attention. Thank you

who do you pay the Bt sport £27 to ?

What about VM supplying all the services .
Alternative would be SKY supplying all the services .Or even BT including BT TV and Sports but that would depend upon what Sky channels you would miss

AndyPK

Yes. VMsupplying everything sounds good except if they have just got a sky discount I bet they are locked in for 12 months.

If this is the case, ring VM tell them you want to leave as too expensive and can do without TV.

They will probably give you a discount and lock in for 12 months.
A week later they may say you can keep TiVo.

Then in a years time ditch sky

Thank you. I'd considered ditching sky but we wanted to keep sky Atlantic. The problem with moving everything to sky though is we only have a virgin line to our house not bt and have been uncertain about if we can get one installed and the cost etc

If you want to keep Sky Atlantic, you could consider a Now TV subscription for at most £6.99 a month. With gift cards it works out to £5 a month. You can also cancel at anytime if the series you want to watch are not available. (Sky catch up on Now is better than on Tivo) You have not said how much Sky charge you for their TV services, but I suspect is more than £5 a month. Given that you have a TiVo box etc for £58 you clearly have TV included.
