it always used to be a a £1 increase every month for 12months now its £2.50 , £1.50 basic & £1 for sports package, personally i binned sky along time ago because of this , and also i dont agree you have to take out the basic package to get the sports , i now pay top up tv , no tied in contract , pay for what you watch/ and watch when you want , cancel at any time over 30 days , last year i got sky sports 1 or 2 and espn for £15.99 with deals , i just think sky tv is becoming very expensive , and sure it will be the first thing to be binned when budgeting at there price

    Where did you get our £15.99 deal from.

    Sky is getting too expensive and we have the Sports channels for my OH.

    I would be quite happy to give it up but...........
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    i kept ringing top up tv asking for the deals , most of which go for 1-3months , i like it because theres no contract , we only have the liverpoool games on so just have the channel turned on with the fixtures etc, you have to ask for them
    they only do sky sports1&2 and espn , they sell the box in argos

    They sent me an offer through the post 'for loyal customers' to get a free of charge HD plus box with self install. So I took them up on their offer for now.
