    You could have a single mix from Sky £16, free 2mb broadband, forget the Sky talk, and keep your BT Together option 1 telephone at £11 or so.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    bt got very upset at me using 100gb+/month on their 'unlimited' service (sent me letters :) ) the LLU sky packages are very good value, especially if you already subscribe to the tv

  • Haggle with Sky. Just make sure you only go for Sky Max broadband if you really need more than 40GB/month. No point getting Sky Max over Sky Mid (and paying the extra fiver a month) if you ain't going to use more than 40GB/month.

    I'd tell them O2 are offering me unlimited broadband for £7.50/month and ask for all the 6 mixes for £16 (with a view to dealing at £19). If the Sky rep is not too willing to play ball, say that you want to evaluate all the mixes before deciding whether to subscribe to Sky Movies and Sky Sports. Any mention of Sky Movies or Sky Sports will make many a Sky rep turn into a vulnerable meerkat:

    Did you just say Sky Movies?
