    That is really helpful thank you. What I will do then is cancel the switch to post office and get the BT line on an 18 month contract for the £29.99 and then just pay them the £70 for breaking the contract early.

    Keep your line renal with BT, you can then avoid Sky's expensive 0845 & 0870 rates (many times BT's) by using another carrier.

    I see that jockess1 has been offered Sky Talk Unlimited free for a year.So it would probaly be better in this case to take this and use http://www.18185.co.uk/mobilerates.php via their 020 or 0808 access numbers for cheaper 0845/0870 calls then Sky provides.

    I will be keeping my line rental with BT and just use my Sky talk for the free calls then use prefix numbers to get cheaper calls to 0845 etc numbers. In the end I just paid the £125 to Bt so I am only on a years contract. With the 18 month contract you had to make 10 calls a month which Iam sure would have been quite easy but now I am only tied for a year which suits me better. I have found this whole thing confusing but got there in the end. Thank you
