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.

have you ever stopped and thought that talk talk are still making a profit from offering you broadband and free calls for £21 a month and that ntl / bt might be making massive profits from charging you £40 a month ?
