  • Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who replied, for some reason I didn't get the notifications so I've only just seen all the subsequent replies!

    My 18 month contract with Sky finishes mid-May, so I have a bit of time yet, but I'm definitely going to scrap the TV package, scrap the TV licence, and just go with Netflix for TV viewing. As for broadband, I'll revisit in April, but there's quite a lot out there to check out, and I'll be interested to find out what Sky may be able to offer for me to stick with them.

    When you look at new broadband options it would also be worth having a look at what cashback options are available. TalkTalk, Plusnet and Vodafone's fibre options will almost certainly all beat Sky on cost, as well as potentially offering significant cashback options via a site like Topcashback.
