Well, I'm based in Manchester

Was yours a self-install, i.e. just plug the box in, or did they fit a dish for you?

Contacted LoveDigital through facebook, was able to get them to call me and they offered me:


Sky Q box
Sky Sports HD
Sky Entertainment HD
18 month contract
...for £20pm.



No install costs, although I did have to wait 9 days until a slot was available! Sound good?

That's ridiculously good -in fact ,seems too good ! Have you got it all in writing?? Effectively £5pm for Sports in HD - Can't remember anyone getting such a good deal - on SKYQ as well.;)

Bite their hand off! Although the disadvantage is after 18 months you'll get a crap renewal deal and as far as I know there's no way to go back to the old sky box

Is this love digital deal for new customers only? How about if you've been without sky for about 4 months?

I sent love digital a Facebook message this morning and still not had a response, how long did it take for them to get back to everyone else?

There was a £10 'admin' charge which was mentioned at the end of the conversation, which was a little annoying, but overall I was happy with the deal.

You should have flat out refused to pay the £10, they would have backed down without a doubt.

Really struggling to get a deal on thw broadband and talk side of things i have been paying £12.50 a month for fibre and line rental for the last 2 years. Sky wrote to me offering half price line rental and £7.50 discount on broadband

I tried to get the same discount as last year and not getting anything

My tv package is sky q 2tb multi room sports movies and full package including hd sports £56 so i cant grumble on the t.v. side

If they're offering you UL fibre for around £20 grab it, you're not getting better off them.
