    Lol its funny because you use $ky instead of sky. Not.

    If you love them so much why read a $ky bashing thread? This is all about paying less for your $ky.

    I think its pretty funny anyway :D

    I`ve had another email offering 60% off and £100 into my account.
    Sorry Sky you should have given a decent offer like this before we were switched off in August as everyone in our household is still more than happy with Freesat.

    Sky have charged me £6.95 for postage on a replacement router after the one they gave me broke. They won't waive the postage fee under any circumstances.

    I complained to the Executive Office and they sent me a mail telling me how much I have had in discounts over the last two years (over £800 apparently) and I should be grateful for this and pay their charge.

    They're letting me leave penalty free though which is nice.

    Was'nt going to have it switched back on,has been off 3 weeks.
    They have rang during that time,but I answered today and accepted half price variety for 12 months plus £80 credit to account.
    No contract,and doesnt affect the free broadband with line rental already applied.
  • Hi all, I just got done live chatting with Sky and didn't realise that when I renewed my TV/Phone/Broadband subscription earlier this year that while they tied me into a year's contract for phone and broadband they didn't for the TV. I'm wondering if I'm best phoning up now to try and haggle for a better deal on the TV or waiting until early next year when my phone/broadband contract ends and doing it all together?
  • Just got the 60% and £100 credit offer, thank you very much.

    I agree. Anyone "bashing" Sky should be paying them nothing at all, not trying to get minor, short term discounts from them.

    I recently received 35% off Sky TV for 10 months and was tied into a 12 month contract. I have just checked upgrading to the Sports on my account online and it is showing as £10.73/month extra, but no where does it have details of how many months this offer is valid for?

    Anyone else got such an offer on their account?

    Offers vary from customer to customer, so they best thing is to ask Sky.
