Free Sky + for new customers

Hello,

There is a new 'Introduce a Friend' deal with Sky

Quote "SkyIAF"

Basically if you know someone with Sky get them to give you their account number, name and address to quote when you ring up - you will be able to get a free sky + box, free installation and no monthly sky + charges. Your friend unfortunatly won't get anything with this offer!

hope this helps someone!

    I rang Sky up and one of the sales assistance told me about it - signed up to it today! Apparently this replaces the £30 M&S voucher referral scheme that has been running recently. The only downside is that the current customer that refers you doesn't get anything

    I need to know this too!
    I just ordered it last week but it doesn't get installed till the 16th...

    Can I call them and get Sky+ instead of a normal Sky box?
  • I had Sky installed a few weeks ago, £26 a month (max broadband and 2 mixes) less £10 credit for buying online and £50 for going through Quidco, so £21 a month.
    My partner's family are getting Sky soon, so thanks OP - rather than going through Quidco I'll ask her to do this RAF deal and give her £60 straight away rather than it taking awhile on Quidco :).

    I rang them today and they said that this offer don't exist anymore (expired last year) and that it's £30 each for me and my friend who referered me in vouchers?

    Is this correct? The number I was asked to dial is 0870 2412939

    I agree ... they don't really offer any incentives for SKY customers to upgrade to SKY+

    Hello,

    I not currently with Sky and never have been, I do really want to sign up for Sky+ but I'm just reluctant to pay the full whack as I know that they are doing so many deals and free for returning customers etc and also I'm sure it's soon going to be free for everybody anyway.

    My friend who has Sky+ has given me his various account details so I can have a go at the above, but I'm wondering if there is a particular phone number I need to use to have any chance of them honouring it.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Best Wishes
