Sky .. I don't want to be a hypocrite but ...

The flat I am moving into next week has got a sky dish .
I've never liked the idea of sky . Hate the look of their dishes etc.
However, I may have a chance to potentially save money by joining them.
My situation : ex b t customer .Consisting of poor reception , poor broadband signal and free b t sports . The free sports have gone , and so have I .

I'm currently using Vodafone for broadband . Only had since January .
This includes free landline £22 p m

Vodafone for mobile phone contract , but am fed up with their
( lack of ) customer service . Clumsy. Adverts on t v are complete opposite of what they preach.

T v : back to freeview since November .

So, is it worth going to sky ? Maybe virgin ? Or, carry on and take my voadafone router around the corner and carry on as I am?

Forgot to mention : although I will,own new flat next Friday , I'm staying in my current flat till end of may . I had to pay 6 months upfront . This means I have time to give notice to Vodafone if need be etc.
Thanks :)

    Vodafone contract 12 or 18 months? If you cancel early you may still have to pay the full amount (minus the VAT i think)

    You cant just take the router around the corner you will need the line swapping or moving if you want the same number?
