    just done it!

    asked for cancellations was put through to a lovely lady who said she was sorry i wanted to cancel,i told her that actually i didnt want to and that i had heard they were offering sky+ for £49.........
    so they are coming out saturday to connect it all up

    now what do i do with the old box and card??


    Stick them on Ebay and you should recoup your £49 for Sky+ and hopefully have a few quid left over too :beer:


    Sky are in a generous mood it seems! We are moving on Friday and are currently at month 11 of our Sky+ contract so didn't want to do lose 1 months viewing which we have already paid for. They asked for £40 to install Sky + in ther new house, my wife said no, can't afford that and they then came back and said, ok, we'll fit it for free.....result!

    You have a 1 month cooling off period. So you could cancel, then take the £49 offer. You shouldn't have to pay any extra a month if you already are on the top package.

    Hopefully you've got the wrong end of the stick on that bit - otherwise you are being ripped off!

    Hi amit_1

    Try calling again and you will get to speak to someone different, who might be less hopeless!

    If you have at least 2 premium channels (which you do!) you don't have to pay extra.

    When I called up, he assumed I wanted Sky+ with multiroom which WOULD have been another £10 per month. I said no, I just wanted Sky+ so he said fine.

    Give it another go icon7.gif

    Hi. I just tried this with my Sky subscription.

    I have sky world + all the movies (normally £35). Complained that sky was getting too expensive for me and they reduced my monthly fee by 50%. So now I am getting the same package for £17.50 for three months.

    Also ordered a sky + box for £49.00 although it is a refurbished unit (apparently only used for a few weeks ) :j

    With the £49 sky + offer are there any tie ins regarding subscription? Do you have to keep the same package for 12 months or anything like that? I am trying to persuade my husband to go for it but he still thinks there might be a catch.
