in TV MoneySaving
I was looking to reduce my TV bill and looked at my account. I had the Sky Entertainment and the HD Pack. The combined total was £35.25 per month.

The package for Sky Entertainment + had a charge of £31.50 per month.

There was no difference in the the two offers. I called to upgrade and saved £4.75 per month.

I explained that I felt Sky should have changed all customers like me automatically. Typical Sky fleeces its existing customer!

    Do note that you are now entered into a new 12 month contract.

    They cant add it automatically as it is a 12 month contract and you also lose the F1 Channel

    To get cheaper sky viewing,just buy a new skybox... :)
    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..

    Funny because I have Entertainment and the HD psvk so it costs me £31.25 ish, and I get F1.
    I think OP must have had Entertaiment extra.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    OP must have Entertainment Extra already and by technically downgrading has lost F1, where as you would upgrade for 25p and lose F1.
