Moving house

Hi,
We are moving house next month and was just wondering if I cancel my Sky subscription (in my name) at my current property, can my wife (in her name) get a new customer deal at the new property?

    I don't see any problem with that so long as your out of contract.

    Try and get somebody to recommend your wife for any freebies that may be available.

    Also make sure it is a different bank account

    Tell em your moving, but not where to, and threaten to cancel (which you intend to do anyway if they call your bluff) and see what they throw at you. You could say for instance that you were not prepared to pay the £60 in moving costs and might consider sky again when you are set up and the premier league is back on in a few months time and see if they throw anything at you? When I moved they gave me a half price install (30) and a free Sky+ box so I snapped it up - especially considering i was still in contract.
