Sorry but that's nonsense, maybe 50% best offer and you have to struggle to get that.

You obviously don't haggle hard enough, i've been on 60% discount for the last 3 years, i should be paying 33.50, i am paying 13.

And when did you last renegotiate?

£13 for Entertainment and £15 for Sport with £10 admin fee on a 12 month deal.

Anyone achieved a better deal than this or some sort of cash back?

I’ve seen a bit better but it’s unclear if those were Sky Q or just HD. I’d say if yours was Q and full HD sports it was at the better end.

I’m just about to enter the haggle again :rotfl:

I’m guessing you haven’t tried haggling recently? I’ve had 60-75% off for the past 3 years and this year the deals have been nowhere near as good. I actually tried again after my tv went off and The deal still didn’t improve, actually got worse. My sky has now been off for nearly 4 weeks. I was planning on renegotiating again at the end of the month but am now happily using now tv and amazon prime instead so not going to bother. I’m still able to watch everything I did before but a lot cheaper (£39 for 8 months). Prior to this I’d been with sky over 10 years, since going off no improved offers on my account or through post. Will update this thread if/when I get any offers.

What does your https://www.sky.com/mydeal show?
Agree, the deals are certainly harder to get, however it depends what package you currently have, and what your target price is?

You have to be cancelled (or possibly in the cancellation process) and logged in for it to show anything.

Yes I'm in exactly the same position, have manged 60% odd off for years, only managing 50% off at present. I'll not return until I get a little more, I am missing the sport..

I’ve cancelled and the /mydeal has improved immediately but not enough yet for me to bite
