    If the account was in your name book it under your partner/spouse's name and make the payment from a different account and you'll get it installed for nothing as a new customer.

    Tell them you want to cancel your subscription (assuming you are out of contract - past the 12 months point), that should encourage them to offer it for free.

    I cancelled a while back, they offered me free installation of SKY+ and a £50 M&S voucher if I would come back. They don't want to lose customers.

    Note: You may actually have to cancel, but they will soon be calling you and begging you to come back.

    :D

    If you are out of your 12 month contract then cancell, when you have moved sign up again but go through a cashback site.

    Or if the new house already has a dish just take your box and plug it in.
