Now TV offers
My Now TV entertainment pass went up to £9.99, so I did the usual and tried cancelling expect them to give me an offer, but nope they just cancelled. Is there anyway to get a new Now TV entertainment pass at a good price now, as it seems like the old ways to get it cheap have all gone.

Backdated TV licence refunds for over 75's
I was unaware of the free TV linces for over 75's and am now 78. They are refusing to backdate 3 years worth of overpayment. Only the few months worth of this year when I applied.. When I suggested going to small claims, the answer was we will fully defend it and you will be liable for full costs. I was also informed that…

Sky Q Price Increase is 17% - breaches contract
I've had the inevitable price increase from sky: Sky Signature - £6.50 increase. So from £31.70 to £38.20. A 17% price increase. It's mentioned on the MSE sky section about a maximum percentage price increase (or inflation) whichever is higher. So I had a look in my contract. It states: * During the minimum term, unless it…

Sky now too expensive? Best options from experience?
Hi, We are paying £88 per month for Sky TV and have been with them for over 20 years. My broadband and landlines are with EE.

TV licencing letter with my name!
Just had one of their letters this morning, which is nothing new in itself, but this time they have included my name and not just to the "Legal Occupier". Now I've never owned (possessed etc...) a colour TV as money was tight when I bought the house in the 1980s with wonderfully high mortgage rates, and never got round to…

Now they are going after my wife.
After 2 visits from TV licence enforcers and numerous letters either addressed to the occupier or in my name they are now sending letters addressed to my wife. This is after being informed that both occupants are over 75 and don't watch live TV. How much more of TV licence holders money will they waste?

MSE News: Got Sky TV? Why you still can't cancel penalty-free if it hikes your price mid-contract
If you've got Sky TV, Sky can put your price up during your two-year contract without telling you what rises to expect before you sign up AND without letting you leave penalty-free. Thought this kind of thing was supposed to be banned? So did we. But our investigation can now reveal that Sky is exploiting a surprising gap…

Exodus from BT to EE (same company): mis-sold and without access.
Preamble After being with BT for fibre (fttd), phone, and TV since 2017, and having put up with the EE - BT takeover and subsequent rebrand, I decided to call EE and enter into a contract for the exact same services as had with BT.
