MSE and Sky 40% plus £100 Credit Deal

W1lk0

Does anyone know if the £100 credit that is "added to your first bill" is applied to the subscription payments?

If this is case, when taking the original bundle there would be nothing to pay for six months.

Thanks

I got a £25 bill credit when I "negotiated" with Sky after cancelling -it was applied to the 1st bill, reducing the cost to a few pence.

I've been wondering the same thing. Is it £100 credit added to the bill for the first month only or until the £100 has been used up over the following months?

It goes into your account until used.


I had a £50 credit, last year, when paying up front for line rental and this meant free calls for 10 months.

The £125 credit was applied to my Sky account.

Monthly amount is £19.80 = £33 - £13.20 (40% off)

My first bill is £105.20 in credit,
because £105.20 = £125 - £19.80

So nothing to pay for about five more months.

Actually, I would much rather they pay the money to my bank, and then take the money monthly by direct debit. Santander 123 gives cashback for DDs.


The Family Pack seems to be a sweet spot in terms of value for money.
I am paying £149 extra for the 2TB Sky+HD, which I intend to keep as a PVR after I cancel, by paying the monthly fee. Full price is £499!

...the problem with that is that many of the people renewing their sub. after cancellation end up on the standard 31 day terms...so quite a few would pocket the cash and cancel anyway :rotfl:

"Renew" should mean you are tied in for another year, especially if you are getting some cash incentive. No tie-in AND cash incentive, that is illogical captain.
