Sky deals anyone?
Discussion
With us moving in a few months I am watching this thread and deals with great interest as its the best internet I can get sadly in the area.
Currently with Virgin 200meg fibre, semi basic tv package and landline is £35 a month and they are not in the new area at all so that is going to go.
Currently looking at -
Standard sky package (Who the f**k charges for HD channels? so wont pay it) £22 + one off fee £20
Sky Superfast Broadband (44-66mb/s) £27
No call package (wont use it)
Monthly - £39 with a one off of £29.95
Seems expensive but best internet I can get!
Only plus side is £60 cashback from Quid co.

... Just renewed via live chat, 3 weeks after giving them cancellation notice as the offers when I called them weren't good enough ...
Did you initiate that discussion? What reason did you use to contact them? I only ask as I'm probably about to do the same thing myself and cancel my contract, and then sit and pray for 4 weeks Kinky said:

I received a text from them saying to check my 'special offer', logged in and it told me to go on live chat or call After our contract expired I called and after speaking to 2 reps, got thru to the retention, (or whatever they call themselves), and got a deal that I am happy with...........and.....upgraded to sky q. Well that was fitted for "free" yesterday and well bugger me, its OK BUT theres no remind function. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Just got off the phone:
Sky superfast broadband (already got but renewed contract early to line up with new TV package)
Entertainment
Cinema
Ultimate on demand
Netflix premium
Multiscreen
£62 a month which is what I was hoping/expecting without the multiroom
It'll be £103 out of contract
Up to now I've been paying £32 just for internet plus a separate Netflix account, so actually only paying an extra £20 a month!

Doing my yearly dance. Cancelled last week, when I was offered £78 (from the £71 I was paying with the discounts that are about to expire) for Movies, Sports, Entertainment, Kids, Box sets, HD and Fibre.
I’ve just been offered the above for £72 including an upgrade to Sky Q on an 18mth contract. I’m hoping the Sky Q router will provide better wifi.
I think it’s a reasonable deal and will probably settle for that.

Does anybody know if new cables are needed from the dish to the box when moving from sky+ to Sky Q?
Doesn't automatically require new cabling assuming existing cable is correct spec and in serviceable conditionThinking of getting Sky again, pretty sure the last time I had it I was paying £18 a month for everything via a deal on here. Now seems to be quite a lot more. It was in the former mrs bigben's name so I would be a new customer by now I think.
Can anyone help with a new customer deal?

was paying £36 for entertainment, sports and movies. got the email saying deal about to come to an end. old HD box, can’t get Q because we’re on a communal dish.
had an offer in my account, clicked through and it said- new discounts click here and it’ll be £39 a month for 18months, great!!! clicked on, sends me out the stuff. it’s only gonna be £39 for the next month while i get double discounts and goes up to £72! rubbish!!!
phoned up and they can bring it down to £52. I’ve told them that’s too expensive and to cancel my services. now doing the dance to see who blinks first! and being honest I think it’ll be me

Moved back to the UK last year and about to move in to a new pad next month.
Looking for a good internet and tv deal, preferably with Sky but will take Virgin if I must. What are these fancy codes people speak of?
Generally a deal for some half.price, or better deals for telly and broadband. Looking for a good internet and tv deal, preferably with Sky but will take Virgin if I must. What are these fancy codes people speak of?
