  • Sure that someone said they had the call the day before ... if not, I was always prepared to try and take it out in the wife's name as a new customer and if they weren't having that just to reconnect me, so I had nothing to lose really. I'd leave it until the day before.
  • Can I do that? Put it in my husbands name at the same address?

    No. They check for that sort of thing otherwise everyone would do it.
  • It's been heard of, someone has done it saying that the partner has left them .. then mysteriously returned 12 months later when it's due again lol ... have a read through some of the other pages on here.
  • So I cancelled about a fortnight ago, got a call this morning and was offered 50% off TV, which I accepted, as it's a bigger discount than I am currently on.
    Just got to sort the fibre & line rental now.
  • Been offered a new sky hd 2tb box for £64 I said no, the sky bloke said he will leave a note on my account if I changed my mind. Anyone think that's a good offer?

    Depends if you want a 2TB STB or not really.
  • Had the box I got now since 2008 how much would I get for that on ebay?

    Postage & fees eats up most of the selling price of a Sky box.

    I might end up gifting away my old Sky+ box :(
