Sky deals anyone?
Discussion
I feel like I’ve been had. Strangely when I got called back, she said it was never £39 for all that, but £49 including the Netflix (so £6 more a month than before), then they couldn’t do £40 credit only £20. But she told me to use the referral to get the £100, which I’ve done. But I don’t feel I’m getting a deal at all. The £100 I’d get regardless from a referral and online it’s £49 with £20 fee. So I save the upfront only.
So, If Davies code works, I’d be loads better off with that.

There’s a half price deal for new customers at the mo. Send me a message and I’ll send it over. There’s a few of us sky folk on this thread now.
The person at Sky I spoke to said any deal available to new customers would also be available to existing customers, just need to quote where you've seen it.illmonkey said:
It’s all gone to pot! Tried using my code on the phone and been told the packages changed yesterday. All codes will no longer be valid and new ones will be needed. I was told they weren’t working earlier in the week either.
So, the lady I was speaking with was ‘trying to get me a deal’, this was the offer
Signature package
Entertainment
Box sets
All sports
All HD channels
2 Sky Go
1TB sky Q
£40 credit
£39 month
Option for Netflix (2 streams) £4/month
When I looked before with the code David provided, it was more than this. And I’m awaiting A call for a better offer. We shall see. But I can’t test the code on the new packages.
You have to get them to play with the packages, they offer just the F1 sports channel, but if you add all sports, it’s cheaper due to the discount.
Thanks for the code David. Seems I’ve picked the wrong time to sign up, but the F1 starts soon!
This has been a bit of a rollercoaster!So, the lady I was speaking with was ‘trying to get me a deal’, this was the offer

The lady called me back after this deal. Turns out, it was £49 including Netflix, she ‘was wrong’ before. I wasn’t that happy but went with it as I wanted it ASAP. Thought nothing more.
I got a call today, bloke from sky saying I’ve left stuff in my basket, do I want to go ahead? I strung him along and he’s basically offered me all the above but for £29(!) a month. I explain I actually did sign up, can he price match it to my account? He can’t but someone else can.
When I speak with them, I am told they cannot. I throw my toys out of my pram a little and say I’ll leave then, straight through to retentions!
I explain and the beltin’ geordie lad says he’ll honour the price I was told on the phone. He’ll even through cinema on for £6 (usually £19). I keep my install date and the £100 referral fee I got from a friendly PH’er on this thread.
So, £35/month gets me:
Signature package
Sky Cinema
Entertainment
Box sets
2x Netflix
All sports
All HD channels
2x Sky Go
1TB sky Q
FREE install

The cheapest they would bring it down to is £90.
I’ve cancelled and waiting to see if they call me back. No call back so far.
Your deal seems pretty good but it’s missing the uhd for me. Good work though.

He offered UHD for £4, and he said he didn’t have any deals on it. I do want UHD, but don’t have the telly yet, so will upgrade at a later date
Presumably the internet is separate extra to that?Did you just call and say your a new customer what can they do?
I explained how I got that price above. I am a new customer who went through to retentions!

So what is taken by one hand is going out of the other.
