Sky+ £110 installed for National Trust members

Options
In the latest National Trust magazine is an offer to upgrade or purchase Sky+ for £50+£60 installation (compared with £100+£60 for current Sky subscribers).
Phoned up tonight to upgrade the MIL's subcription and got it (eventually because the kid at the other end had no idea what to do initally and had to go for advice).
You also have to pay the extra £10/month for the Sky+ subscription but having got this ourselves we couldn't be without it.
AND - although the offer says you will have to give your NT membership number Sky didn't ask for it.:T
OK so not a fantastic deal but if you're thinking of upgrading from Sky to Sky+ and you know someone in the NT (or can blag that you can't find your card at the minute) you can save yourself £50.
You don't get medals for sitting in the trenches.

    heres what i done i went on digital spy forums and saw an article on how to get it for 49+60 instalation.you had to phone sky up and say you saw an advert for sky+ for 49+60 instalation you had to quote sky+49 when you phoned sky so we tried it and the guy on the phone said there was no such offer so we argued there was and threatened to cancel sky so he went and got a manager and they came to the phone and asked wat the problem was so we explained about the offer we saw and that the guy said we couldnt have cos it didnt exist so we wanted to cancel our sky he apologised and said when would you like it installed 2 days later we had it installed new dish and everything no multiroom sub and we didnt pay the instalation only the 49 for the sky+box and a lot of ppl are getting away with not paying the instalation acccording to digital spy forums

    Can I ask what package you are currently on with sky because if you pay over £30 a month anyway they should waive the extra £10 a month...
