Sky Discount For Existing Customers

Options
Hello there

If you call Sky wanting to cancel they will give you 3 months at half price. Me +  other 2 people have just done this and it's a good deal as you get the top package for £20 instead of £40 a month, that's a saving of £60 over 3 months.  ;D

Insert from Martin This tip is rightly very popular.  A warning though, while asking for a discount is a great method, and i'm sure you genuinely are considering leaving if you don't get it, so it's fine -  Never lie as part of this, that could be deamed fraud.  
I say what I like, I like what I say!

    We do this every 18-24 months & they always offer us the discount ;D ;D Well worth doing.
    Sometimes it's important to work for that pot of gold...But other times it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow...
  • If you have registered for the "seaon ticket", will they still offer the discount I wonder?

    Excellent for those who have received the offer and thanks for the post.

    How did you do it? Did you upgrade first then cancel to recieve the 1/2price offer? Or did they just offer it to you? I've got the £19.50 package, and I don't mind having the full package for 50p more, for the 3 mths.

    I just phoned up and said I wanted to cancel because I was fed up of watching repeats and they suggested I changed my package and did I want to try the full package for 20 quid a month,how could I say no!!
