New...50% off Sky TV packages, 3000 MORE codes
Comments
-
I agree it is unfair they should have just used a lottery system, would have much fairer to everybody, esp to the people who, you know, actually do stuff and can't be at a computer all day.
And to combat anyone just signing up for the sake of it:
since there are 3000 codes, all should be tracked, give all 3000 out via a lottery system, any codes not used before a set date are voided and new codes reissued to others in the lottery, repeat until all 3000 are used.
I'm pretty sure in the age of computers that wouldn't be hard to do.
I agree 100%, this is crazy. I have to get ready for night shift in 30min and still no code
. If anyone manages to get an extra code, please PM. Thanks in advance 0 -

i don't think you have to a member of mse to get the offer, maybe it should be limited to those who log in0 -

Thank you. I thought so. I'm wondering which would be the most cost-effective way or doing it; this way or by getting the £21.50 'value' deal without the code which already includes phone and broadband?

u can get that i think but i think you have to take the line rental as well so it would still be a better deal as instead of 21 + 14.50 it would be 10 plus 14.50.Thank you. I thought so.

i may be wrong and i am sure someone else will put me right0 -
reckon i can get that deal bryanryan if i'm not a new customer? i know the code through MSE will work but not sure if i can just ring up sky and say 'hi i want everything and want it half price'? currently have the basic tele package + unlimited broadband and basic phone line.... and paying £1 a month less than you!

Thanks again Stuart. The code is only for tv though as far as I can see, so the cost for the broadband and phone would also need to be added to the £10.75 + £14.50? Unless I'm being dim (wouldn't be the first time!)

I think early on in this thread someone called them as they were already a customer and they did discount to half price. Wont hurt to try!
