Sky TV Discount

Options
Just been on the phone to Sky. I have the full Sky TV subscription costing £78 per month. After speaking to a nice bloke called Scott i've just been given a new 12 month contract with a reduction of £16 per month - thank you very much MSE!

    Sorry but that's not enough, you should be looking at 50% off and £50 bill credit. You may have to physically give your 30 day notice to get this offer.

    Too late to do anything about it now, but you should have at least got a 50% discount. I have the full Sky package plus HD for £41.

    Well that did you know what on Jockclarks chips
    Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.
  • Due to call Sky on Saturday, one month before the contract ends.
    Currently paying £36 which includes HD but not movies or sport channels.
    Trying to convince the Mrs to cancel and see if they offer anything.

    You give them 30 days cancellation notice to see if you can get the 50% off and bill credit, worse case you just call back up to reactivate within the 30 days.
