    I'm afraid it's gone out to all who get the MSE email and that means Sky will go awfully reluctant to give away anything much for the next few weeks.

    Absolutely.

    I was holding out as people had suggested, and now Martin's email has suggested everyone rings Sky for a better deal. That's going to inundate Sky with calls so can't see the point trying now.

    I can see why Martin thinks he's doing a good service by telling everyone but he's effectively probably killed the deals now.

  • Just rang and got 6 months half price on the Tv I have the full package and my 12 months half price deal has just ended.

    Keep trying everyone and dont give up I have had many good deals off sky in the past. (Oh and by the way I have never paid for an engineer and have had about 4 call outs. Stick to your guns.)

    Thanks to all who posted

    I got half price TV and half price £10 monthly HD subs - both for 6 months. Guess l was just lucky with the woman l spoke to but those of you who don't get offered it could try haggling?


    Happy moneysaving all.

    i got the 50% for 6 months offer too but went ahead and cancelled.
    guess what? even with basic sky tv the box if not even connected. you dont need the tv, especially if your a dvd buff like me.
    iplayer, itv and channel 4 versions...get it all for free on the internet! my sky bill monthly is now 15 quid for broadband and calls whereas all last year it was 45-50 quid a month.
    i dont miss it.

    After going back between sky and virgin last week I ended up getting a further 6 months off on my sky package, and a better broadband package (fibre optic) from Virgin, plus a free upgrade from L to XL broadband AND Virgin have kindly offered to move their tv services from the lounge to the bedroom for free. So now I have both lol, but I'm pleased that everything is under £50 a month. I will most likely cancel sky once the 6 months is up.
