I don't mean to sound resentful about having to pay - just that like many others who're on benefits, it's a lot to pay out in one month on top of my regular bill & coming up to Christmas. 
But thank you to everyone's input for enabling me to at least have the right expectations. |
See if you can get any cheaper quotes from a telco installer in the local paper ? Might be worth it, but I think VM will probably be the cheapest
