    hi, can anyone offer any tips on the best way to go about changing our Sky deal? - we pay £47 per month with all mixes, sports and movies. I think we want to drop movies and maybe the kids channels but also get two Multiroom boxes, one for me and one for my disabled grandmother who lives with us. I want a deal! we dont really want to spend anymore than we are now on Sky, and ideally really would like to spend less! any suggestions? thanks :)

    you gotta work thephones with them as mentioned on here. Be prepared to do the worst you want to do like telling them to poke it! If you do not ask......

    I would call ema nd say you wanna ditch the premuims. say its too much they will ask why etc. tell you you will keep it for free multiroom etc.

    has to be deal to be had surely?

    Hiya

    Well "ema" is bad typing on my part. I mean "em and"

    You need to call and get from the Indians to the cowboys so ask for the cancellations team in scotland.

    You have a 30 day notice period so if they do call your bluff you can always call them back ina few days and say you have changed your mind after a beating from home!

    Its better when you know an actual sky engineer, NO call out charges, NO repair bills (Except giving him some homebrew) I got an 8 Port LNB on my dish.

    He did however warn me that Sky look at these forums and shut down any loopholes or stop offers if they see people trying to take advantage. Like the rentention offers, when people constantly ring up they will just say "goodbye" (not saying it happens but he was telling me about what his boss said). Because people were ringing up asking for a retentions only offer.
  • Jus had new book today. Tempted by the HD+ offer. Read of rise in magazine letter and also had another letter explaining new charges.
