SAP7:To Pete (above) I'm about to renew my V+ deal, about £85 all in. Just what is the current Sky/Carphone W / Quidco package deal in ££££'s No huge paragraphs, please, just the facts n figures! I know its a package deal through different sources, but a quick breakdown would help!! Cheers
Sky HD TV = £49 box + installation plus £9.75 HD Pack + £16.50 (1 entertainment pack minimum) = £364 for the 1st year.
Discounts - Go to Sky via Quidco and get £100 cashback, £50 M&S voucher from Sky plus £9.75 1st month free HD pack = £159.75 discounts for new customers.
Total cost of TV for the 1st year after discounts = £17.02 pcm
Carphone Warehouse and Sky offer good deals on broadband and phone services for under £20 per month. You'll need a BT line for the Carphone Warehouse deal, although if you get the Post Office phone deal they'll sort out your BT line for nothing and there's no contract. Get the Post Office to install your BT line for free, then swap after a month to Carphone Warehouse.
I pay £43.75 to Virgin Media for an XL TV package, L Phone and L Broadband, plus 1 V+ box and another V Box. They call it a loyalty discount which for me is ongoing, but you'll need to sign up to a fresh 12 month contract. V+ Box isn't a waste of money if you can get the same sort of deal as I have. Virgin are well aware how many customers they're losing to Sky HD and I'm sure there will be more HD content coming.
Added 06/02/09 - Looks like the Sky £50 M&S voucher isn't available anymore.
