Any Change of a Sky Deal

Options
Hi All,

Just moved house and Sky is still registered at the old address. We have just a basic sky box in my name only as I got Sky before I got with the GF. On the £22 mixes package with Sky. I'm well out of my minimum contract with Sky.

I've got BB with a different company and BT for the Line Rental so paying out:
BT LR - £16.45
Sky Subs - £22
Internet - £19.99

Total: £58.44

Taking a Sky Talk Unlimited Package (the GF talks a lot!), Sky BB Pro and a HD Subscription from Sky would still work out (just!) less than I'm paying now so seems a good idea. Even just getting Sky+ then saves me over a tenner a month on what I'm paying now.

Also, I can get ADSL2 with Sky which should pretty much double my 5Mbps sync that I get currently.

I looked on their site and the only "deal" they will do me there as an existing customer is to do free installation on the BB - but still charge me the full price for the HD / SKY+ box and the installation.

What do you think the chances would be of getting a deal out of them by calling them and asking?

Or would I be better just cancelling my contract at my old address and letting the GF take out a shiny new contract at this address in her name only (she's never had a Sky contract before)?

So many options and I hope someone here will have an idea as to what the best course of action will be?

Thanks All,
Adam
