I am always very dubious of anyone who comes to the door to sell me anything.  Normally I just turn them away or ask them to leave me some details.

Tonight I got a visit from a chap "claiming" to be from TelstraClear.  I explained that I had moved to Sky because of the PVR incompetence and was still within the 12 month contract (expires May ish).

He explained that because Sky and TCL are so close - presume he meant like BFFs or something - that Sky will waive the early termination fee as they technically still have a customer.

He showed me that I would be at least $7 a month better off under TCL for TV on the same plan and offered the first 2 months line rental free ($85.88 x 2) to entice me to move over!

Firstly, I doubt that Sky will waive the early termination fee.  Secondly, when I asked if he worked for TCL or an independent marketing company, he explained that "he's been with TCL for quite a while" and that he is in the office almost daily - like an employee!

I will probably ring TCL and Sky to see if what he is saying is true.  Has anyone else been offered this?  I'm a big believer of if it sounds too good to be true......

He has left me a leaflet which says - no contract, free installation and all the usual blurb.  He even mentioned Geekzone - so if you are reading this - nothing personal, I just don't trust any sales people!

Thoughts?
