Sky Package Offer

In December 2006 a Sky package was advertised at £26.00 per month which included Sky TV, Broadband and Telephone Calls. When I applied for this offer I was an existing Sky subscriber paying £32.00 per month just for Sky TV so thought I would take up the offer. Sky told me that my area "Isn`t due to go live within the next 12 months" however, they did offer me "good news" in as much as I could get their "Sky Broadband Connect now".
I was later told that it was anticipated that my area would be live by October 2007 and because of this I signed up.

It will be two years in February 2009 and I am still paying between £65 and £75 per month for Sky TV, Sky Broadband and Sky Talk. Is there any way that I can get them to honour their original price of £26 per month ? I would not have signed up to their Broadband and Sky Talk if I had known that two years on I would still be paying this much. I would love Sky Plus but cannot afford it.

Any advice?????

  • they promised nothing. if you don't want the bills from sky, you are free to leave them.
    ...or...are you asking if you can somehow get sky to give you a free +box?
    check samknows.com to see if your exchange has sky/easynet or be/o2 LLU available, and report back
