Well I'm still on 2mb paying ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£24.99 a month, and I am not ringing threatening to cancel because I have no intention of cancelling. My ntl broadband is completely reliable and completely superb, I don't mind paying full price for it, in fact I'd rather do so rather than encourage corner cutting.

I also have phone and DTV. I would have no real need of TU24 to be honest, but I wouldn't consider cancelling any of my three services, so I won't lie by ringing them and saying I would.

Stupid? Maybe! But unlike many I understand the 'rules' of business. In the long term you get what you pay for. One of the reasons I'd not even consider the Talk Talk deal is that I prefer my supplier to be making some sort of profit out of my business. Long term, you don't get something for nothing.

I'm not advocating paying more than you need to, just saying that nothing in life is truly free.
