Re: telephone providers??? need help
I now pay £35 a month (my last bill) for broadband, TV and phone.The Broadband is the lowest speed - but enough for normal use. The TV is limited to Freeview channels (I rarely watch TV) and the phone is call-barred for outgoing mobile/ premium rate calls. The family use their own mobiles for anything else!
That`s with Virgin Media. I wouldn`t recommend them particularly, but I find that if you phone up and shout at them that you`re leaving they offer deals
If you phone Virgin and say you`re going to Sky if they don`t offer you a better deal (I got the Introductory Offer when I did it last) you should be able to sort it. If not - move!

Re: telephone providers??? need help
I'm with Virgin media, it costs £42 a month, for that I get over a hundred TV channels, talk unlimited on the phone, and broadband internet called surf-unlimited.The phone package is really good coz I don't pay for calls anywhere in the UK as long as it's a land line and as long as the call doesn't last more than 59 minutes, if I go over the 59 mins I pay for each minute at the standard call rate.

Re: telephone providers??? need help
TalkTalk are my telephone service providers. I pay £15.74 a month and for that I get Line Rental-unlimited telephone calls 24 hours providing I don't go over the hour (can put phone down and redial again) and all my calls to Germany are free. There about 15 other countries you can dial for free. Also get 10% off any mobile calls I make.This is only for the telephone service-but might be worth checking how much they charge for the full package Broadband etc.
