I have always had sky as I lived in an area which I could not get Virgin Media, and always thought it was good but expensive. Not only did you have to pay for the channels but also a bt line and your calls on top of that and then your broadband ....if you wanted that also. This ammounted to a great deal of cash. Since then Sky has released ...

In order to get this package I had to sign up for a 12 month contract but this was no where near as bad as 18 month, I have been completley happy with the service, my internet connection is always extremely fast and my total bill always comes in at under 40 pounds per month for everything, that even ...
