  • Hey,
    Within the last week, MSE informed us that Skysongs were giving 10 free downloads. To get these, I registered with Skysongs but found I couldn't navigate the site. E.G., I wanted a track by Judy Collins. I clicked on the J & got artists whose names began with Ja, but I couldn't scroll to Ju. Can anyone help, please?

  • Don't know if it was the same offer, as I don't recognise the promo code, but I signed up for such an offer last week and got nowhere slow.

    First I wasn't sure if I was supposed to run their download software first or just click the download link and the software would be loaded for me (and was I using the wrong browser -- is this another Firefox hating site?).

    Anyways, after trying a couple of links and finally finding the "my account" section, it seemed that by then it thought I'd already download the chosen album even though I failed to get a single song of it. Then I noticed it said I only had one chance to re-download it so thought I'd better have a good look round to seem if I could find an idiots guide to downloading an album. Failing to do that I thought I'd risk it anyway but by then it had decided that I'd already re-downloaded it too and if I wanted it again that'd be £6.49 please.

    Emailing skysongs@bskyb.com all the above details last Friday and requesting my account be re-credited so I could try again (with instructions on how to do so, if they would) has so far elicited no response and my Skysongs account is still showing as empty.
  • Dear jag,
    Thanks for the link.

    Using it, I got to the track I want. However, I have a hesitation. If I download the track using that link, will I have to pay? The aim is to get it free. Can you advise?
    Best,

    Is there a catch though? is it a subscription service that needs to be cancelled otherwise you will be charged every month?? :confused:

    IF you signed up using the promotional code top get 10 free song downloads and followed the instructions in this thread:

    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=2085549&highlight=skysongs

    Then when you sign into your Sky Songs account it should say at the top how many free Songs remaining this month eg: 10 | 19 days remaining.


    You then download the track but choose to pay via your songs credits rather than credit/debit card payment.

    If it is the same deal has in this thread http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=2085549&highlight=skysongs then you only sign up for one month which is free. Your memebership then ends unless you pay again. It is not an automatical renewal.
