    I am going to get my mum to phone them tomorrow (well today really) as I just got her to join 3 weeks ago - she paid for her sky plus box so I am going get her to ask for the offers to be added to her account retrospectively otherwise she will tell them that she will just cancel and reorder - thus causing more work/hassle for both SKY and herself - will let you all know how it goes :)


    three weeks into a contract is way too late to cancel surely? :confused:

    Ah, I missed that - a bit of a con really - so the final total for 1 year of sky would be £279.50 then! Blimy

    better off with a freeview recorder! at a price of £119.99 from argos. Well, that answered my own question.

    I would recalculate

    £0 for sky+, box and installation
    free present tft dvd worth £100
    3 months half price package

    Sky + so worth it in long run,

    Is there a code for the free DVD offer? What do you have to quote them?

    no code, voucher in daily mirror, finding out when then go to library and get it out of there.

    Nup - you have 30 days in which to cancel - just phoned them and the IDIOTS won't simply just do a refund and send the DVD player - they "can't" do it apparently - so now I am cancelling and reordering - which is a hassle - but still saves me money :)

    I just called them up and apparently you can't combine both offers. No biggie for me anyway. According to the bloke on the phone, if i take up the DVD player offer the Sky+ box is then £99 and i dont get 3 mnth half price. Not sure if he was lying through his teeth, but its no big deal and I can't be bothered to argue over getting a 20 quid free gift on top.

    I have plenty of DVD players so im not too bothered.

    Managed to change my installation date though :)

    It says Nothing about buying sky @ any price, just you need to subscribe to the package at minimum £15 pm!
    All you need is a Sky Contract No.

    If u wanna PM me your address i'll post voucher on as i don't need it, worth a shot i guess!
  • anyone know the telephone number for Sky (using saynoto0870 website). I've tried telephoning them, and each time I seem to reach a call centre in India or somewhere, who don't seem to have a clue what I'm saying, it's rather frustrating to be honest.
