no one does its yet another rip off by a huge company thats happening everyday and no one is batting an eyelid over it. its the same with their rivals, even though they no longer have sky one ect... they are still charging the same prices.

No. From Friday I'm getting Virgin for £11/month. It's way better value. The only thing I'd want Sky for are Lost and Dresden Files, but I can wait for the DVD for Lost and there's a wonderful American person whose putting up Dres Files on You Tube (ad free and two weeks ahead of the UK).
There's also the good feeling I get from knowing that Rupoert Murdoch isn't getting any of my hard-earned.

No!! What a rip off! Get freeview, it only costs a one off of about £30 for a set top box and you have hundreds of channels, try your local Argos or Curries for the best deal, Sky is just a huge rip off, when will you even have time 2 watch all the channels?!
Good Luck, Hope you make the right decision!

no its not to be honest ive got the whole package and i have multi room and sky+ waste of money but its good for the kids in another room im paying 10 for my extra box and another 10 to use sky+ features or it wont work then theres the package in total im paying 55 just for this month because the wife wanted the sports on for 3 months she saw in an offer let me tell youi will be dropping my package down to the minimum next month which is still going to cost me 35 but if i had not entered into an18 month contract with bt for my broadband then i guess iwill be getting the see, surf and speak deal later on hope this helps

At least you get a choice of whether you pay for it or cancel it.With the terrestrial (BBC) you dont get that option unless you get rid of your television altogether.I have the full package with Sky (sky+ skytalk and broadband) If I get any problems with any of the services I threaten to cancel the lot and they soon sort it out

good value?! that's daylight robbery. I'm quite happy with my freeview, there's no way I'd pay that sort of money for sky, however good it is
and anyway, surely the people who can afford to pay that sort of money haven't got time to sit around watching telly all day - you'd be out working

NO WAY!!!!
Heard advert on local radio from them trying to poach Virgin Media customers!!!! Got me thinking is that why they tried to charge over the odds for 4/5 channels.
Absolutely disgusted!!!
