The biggest contenders are people like Sky, Virgin, BT who are all selling packages to rival each other. It's quite an arduous task to ascertain which package gives you the best value for money.
However, you might now be happy. You've got the package you want. You're enjoying lots of TV Channels, Super fast Broadband and freephone telephone calls to talk to Auntie Maud. Is that it?
No. I'd certainly say to consider calling them in a years time. Why ?
I was sitting on an entertainment package costing me close to £70 per month. It was only the basic TV package, Middle Broadband Package and Free Calls.. but I walked past a trailer in the local shopping centre and they were advertising a similar package for £33!
Shocked, I walked in and explained what I was paying and they advised me (quietly and discreetly) to ring the provider up and choose the option "I am considering leaving"!
So I did.
And I was asked why I was considering leaving. Well, I wasn't... was I? So I explained that I was a little disgusted with my monthly fee and explained what I had and what I was paying. I couldn't have the £33 option as it would have reduced the package I had, but they struck me a deal.
They knocked it down to £45. A saving of £25 per month. Yep £300 per year back in MY bank account, not theirs.
It's certainly worth doing regularly. As years go on, technology becomes faster, bigger, better, cheaper.. so ring up and ask for your prices to be reviewed.
Save yourself some money and don't let them have it.
