Sky upgrade then downgrade question

Following on from my earlier post:

I was just online chatting to a sky advisor.

If I upgraded the box to a sky+hd box, it would cost £109 including box and setup.

But the advisor, suggested that I upgrade my package to Entertainment+ (we have Entertainment) for an extra £5/m, this will give me a FREE sky+hd box and FREE setup and I only pay £5/m extra for 1 year (total=£60) then I can cancel and go back to the Entertainment package.

But is there a catch, like, is it possible to downgrade from Entertainment+ to Entertainment ?

No, there are lots of options like this with Sky and other subscription based services. The "catch" is that you forget to downgrade again in 12 months time and they get the extra revenue for a few years.

I have done the same with sky movies

I want to sky go connector and will get it as a movie customer but not as a basic entertainment passenger - so have upgraded to skymovies (Half price - £8) for one month only so get my connector for £8 instead of £21)

I won't forget, I can assure you.
