Well, I have just rung Sky to give my notice on broadband and phone/line rental as I found it £5 a month cheaper and the nice lady on the other end of the phone has just saved me £17.75 a month for 9 months! This means my phone and broadband will only be costing me £2 a month for the next 9......think they are desperate to keep customers!

Do I need to let my IP know? My review isn't until November!

That's excellent news!!

Technically you should let your IP know but I think you'll be safe until your next review.

They must have a campaign on or something, we recently switched our broadband and landline from BT to Sky and saved a fortune[:)]

Can't be bothered with the hassle. As I have everything with Sky it works out much cheaper than the others and we don't have cable.

Stewpots, it was a company called primus although BT and tesco have offers on at the minute too. Sky didn't actually ask who was cheaper, they just came up with this offer! I do find most of the time if you ring and say you are leaving they usually come up with something, you do have to go through to the cancellations team though. X

Red we always do that...we phone sky up every now and then saying Virgin have been in the area and can offer us exactly the same deal but a lot cheaper...they are desperate to keep their customers so matchthe deal! Best thing is we cant even get Virgin in our area!! [;)] x

We can't get Virgin in our area either, last time we phoned Sky though, they wouldn't offer us anything, I guess that's because we only have the basic package anyway so they're not so keen to try and keep us!
