    Can't go too mad as not in my name, but we are currently paying £19 per month for VM 100 meg, play bundle and talk weekends. Last time we spoke to VM, they offered us about a fivers reduction on £43 a month, we said we would think about it, waited a month and took out a plusnet contract that required them to contact VM to port our number, next day VM called us and offered us our current £19 deal.

    Did the number transfer request go through that quickly? Just wondering whether to give them a nudge ;) (though Elite know my drama earlier this year - I ended up leaving then coming back :D).

    Bought some Jack Wills stuff from Boots today.

    1) Jack Wills ultimate set or something. Was £22.50 down from £45 lol but not 3 for 2. Consisted of toiletries and a jack wills scarf.

    2) was another Jack Wills item for £16 in the 3 for 2.

    Now there was exactly the same products and weights in both the items only difference was the scarf for £6.50 but imagine paying the £45 for it . That would be £29 just for the scarf :eek: I don't think so lol and the cheaper one was in a solid tin whereas the other was just in a box with a bit of ribbon

    Did you get a good deal on Full House? We have been offered (after csncelling) £45 per month plus £50 credit, but said we would think about it ... we need to think quickly as we only have a week left and they haven't phoned back since :eek:.

    Thanks

    No. I’ve only been doing £10’s getting 6 points a time, the receipts say I got double points.
    Not really bothered about the T points thought, I’m happy with half price petrol.
