Its a good day for it :)

Phoned up Orange this morning, threatened to leave - got a PDA phone for free and they even chucked in a bluetooth headset...

Mrs Puggit then phoned up NTL, threatened to leave - now we've got Sky Sports for a year for free

Great idea!

I just told the boss, that I'm leaving unless I get an office, PA, double wages and a company Lambo.

Anyone else got the afternoon off and fancy a drink?

Well done, now fancy trying your luck with Inland Revenue or the water/gas/electricity company?

That was my point. This all started yesterday when the dappy in the call centre responded to my "What offers do you have for existing customers then?" enquiry with "Oh we don't have any"

So 1 hour of internet surfing later we can get same deals for Phone with BT, Internet with Plus.net & TV with Sky (& for a modest charge one of those lovely Sky+ thingies) So I make my call to cancel and they convince me to stay
