Just went and checked how muh a month I was paying and it was £38/month. According to their website if I remove movies it drops to £22 so I was paying £16 a month for movies which is shocking :mad:

I asked to remove them as I said it was cheaper to rent from Blockbuster and they offered me 3 months at £7 taking it to £29. I've taken this up and he advised me to ring back before end of the 3 months to see if theres any other offers.

Also checked re HD and was quoted £75 for box, £30 for ins (free if you take multi-room) and £10 a month subscription. Currently 22 HD channels and 6 more by end of October which are mainly movies

Thanks a lot, not a huge saving but it all helps

I did this two weeks ago and they offered me the movies for £5 a month for the next three months. So I guess there cancellations dept just offer u any deal to see if u accept so there are no hard fast rules

But i'm happy cos i then phoned back and got unlimited calls free for 12 months :j :T

Yep sky can take over your line rental from BT.... if you are lucky they and get a nice customer service person they can offer to you for free for 12 months with free unlimited calls. Thats's what they offered me

hi guys, what numbers have you been getting through to get these great deals with sky, is it this 01506 831006
just come off the phone and said i needed to downgrade my package as i could no longer afford it ..... got no joy, all the customer service operator said was go to our web page for current deals.......arrggghhhh.
i then said i might even consider sky taking over my line rental and i was put through to another operator and i said do you have any deals for sky to take over my line rental and he abruptly replied its £10 a month and i just said goodbye.
so two trys and not 1 penny off , i was even prepared to give them extra business with my line rental. realy gets my back up as ive been with sky for donkeys years and never got a discount or deal.
any tips out there what exact number to phone and what to say ...... im prepared to give them an extra £10 of revenue a month by them taking over my line rental , but i would love some kind of discount in return.. times are hard !

Think I'm going to 'cancel' my Sky tomorrow and see what happens, you never know! If I can get Sky+ cheaply I'll be well chuffed. I need to downgrade anyway, I'm paying for sports I have never watched and movies that are hit and miss. Might get rid of them and sign up for Lovefilm or Tesco DVD rental for a tenner. Might get some films worth watching that way!

I'm really pleased - yesterday arranged for HD+ box and installation for £79

Also, for the full HD package, telephone rental with all inclusive calls 24/7 I'll be paying a total of £60 - a good saving on what I was paying and BT rental + 18855 monthly calls (high number).

I'll be saving around £20 each month + I'll be getting a new box, and HD TV
:beer:

BTW - scottish call centre have lovely staff - I don't bother chatting to the indian call centre, just say I have to cancel for economic reasons - (then do your chat to the people who count!!!)

I had 2 mixes & sports package + HD subscripion and have just rung sky and got this for £34 a month instaed of £48 for the next 6 months. The man from cancellations told me to call back when the 6 months was up to get me a new deal!! Very Happy!!
