What's the general concensus, is it worth having "all your eggs in one basket" or is it a waste of time and money, or are Sky crap at this sort of thing anyway? To give you an idea, they are selling a deal for £35 which includes Sports, broadband and "free" evening and weekend calls, or for an extra fiver, all calls all the time.
I've heard the broadband is terrible... ...if ya not bothered about that then obviously sky tv is quite and phone calls are phone calls. If you live in a virgin area i would go with them tho
I have avoided it... .... for the time being. I am happy with my ISP and 'phone and don't want to change yet. I opted for the Sky package you are on about (the £35 one). I know it seems extravagant but there are two main reasons I went that way;</p> 1) If I don't find the TV package to my liking I can get rid in 12 months. I'm not sure but I think the broadband and 'phone package might be for Sky customers. If it is and If I had the broadband and phone package I would probably have to get rid of them too. That would mean starting again. So I'm gonna wait and see if I like what I see this next year.</p> 2) A mate of mine has just done the whole package and it's been a nightmare getting his ISP to release his mac code or whatever. He was offline for nearly a month. This was NOT Sky's faultI hasten to add, but it was still a load of bother. I wanna be really sure then that I want the whole package first beforeI start meddling with what is performing well.</p>
Yes - I have all the package and very happy so far. I had full TV package with Sky anyway - so a bit of a no brainer really. Broadband is fine - but bear in mind I had Orange before who were terrible. Phone bills have dropped too - got the free evening and weekend package and can't see why anyone with Sky shoudln't take it. If it's free, why not? However, if I could get Cable, I would have stayed with them I guess. I had to move when I left Monk Bretton. Overall though Sky is fine - but it's like all the others, you only find out how good / bad they are when you have a problem.
Me It's been fine for me, broadband is excellent, never had any problems. £35 is slightly misleading though as you also have to pay line rental to BT, about £10 a month.
"Leaving Orange" Is that the film where Nicholas Cage goes to York and stuffs himself with Terrys Chocolate Oranges & Cointreau? I think he dies after having it off with Elizabeth Wellingtonboot. Very good film.
RE: "Leaving Orange" Sounds a better plot than the bo**ocks that is 'Snake Eyes' I watched on Sat. Worst of an otherwise decent bunch.
More importantly: Are you Jon Bon-Jovi? I was just checking out your initials. If you are - you're a right lovely person. Wanted dead or alive? Fecking dead would be fine - just to stop you "singing". And you can tell that Richie Sombrero to **** off as well.
Stop changing the subject you've ******* hijacked the whole Broadband thread. Do you actually know anything about Broadband or are you covering up your Broadband knowledge gap with unrelated wit. Come on admit it you're on dial up aren't you? Keep the faith Jon
I don't know which is funnier... Jon Bon having a go at TFP for hijacking or the 'keep the faith' bit at the bottom.</p> You two give 'Love a bad name'</p> </p> </p>
Aye. "Slippery when wet". Just that. loved in the arse, Now it's inflamed, You give gays - a bad name. I think we've done this before. I think I've got a loving knowledge gap.
Yes. "I was scuttling the Mum in the front whilst fingering the daughter in the back". Hi Mum. Insert hat / name jokes here-
Are we getting drunk in town anytime soon... I generally won't be seen 'dead or alive' with a bald lovely person so we better get summat sorted pronto.</p> Or am I living on prayer? </p>
RE: Are we getting drunk in town anytime soon... Can we travel to TARN on some type of steel horse? Then off to the Omega. I'd one of them to go down in a blaze of glory, or summat. Bring Lesroy. This thread is now officially gay.
I could get a brass horse from the pikey's in Darfield... Omega sounds good....</p> </p> My hit rate at the Omega is class....</p> </p> 3 entries</p> 0 Shags.</p> Money spent 3 x £10 entry fee + 100 quid in booze.</p> I'm the bloke from the 'couldn't score in a brothel with a pocket full of tenners' gag.</p>
Kinell. I bet you stole a towel though. I've nailed all the bints in the Omega. I also waved my passport in their pretty eastern European faces - just to tease them. I find paying for intercourse is better than the constant rape-a-thon I was on in my younger years. Can I say that?
No Take that back.</p> </p> I rather liked Jay's post yesterday about shagging dogs...</p> </p> I could just see him with a bull mastiff dressed in leather with a rather large cooking apple stuck in it's gob.</p> </p>
RE: Leaving Orange A nightmare. refused to give me a code - said I had to give 30 days notice. Offered to pay to get out and still refused. Made me wait then had the cheek to ring and ask if I wanted to come back!!
