    Try this link: www.sky.com/mydeal

    Gave me 50% off after only a few minutes
  • Thanks I followed the link but am only getting sky entertainment for £17, box set + HD + kids all for £1 etc. Haven’t got a 50% off yet.

    Would you mind sending a pic of what the 50% looks like?

    There's no such thing, they'll offer various prices depending on where you look. If you have Sky Q have a look on the box, also check out the Sky App.

    ring up say you heard from a friend obviously dont mention this site
  • Just had a very unpleasant shock as my Sky bill rocketed from £24 to over £30 a month - and that's for only a partial month so would be even more for a full month. Rang them after following the haggle guide and finding an offer for £18 a month for broadband and unlimited calls. Got price down to £23 a month. Didn't really want to switch as they are fairly reliable and where I live can be difficult to get a good service. :-)

    Sky couldn't come up with a decent offer for me. Currently paying £31 a month for bog-standard basic broadband, which is more than you can get new deals for fibre. We can't get fibre yet in our area though. Anyway, I am switching to BT due to Sky's intransigence. It's strange, because usually they are quite easy to deal with but not on this occasion. P.S. been with them for TV for 20 years.
    Retired at age 56 after having "light bulb moment" due to reading MSE and its forums. Have been converted to the "budget to zero" concept and use YNAB for all monthly budgeting and long term goals.
  • I’m a Platinum VIP customer (11years). Bill was £52 but going up over £65 for Superfast Fibre, Entertainment, HD, Kids, Boxsets all on a HD+ box. Screw that. Phoned on Thursday to give my 31 day notice. Went onto sky.com/mydeal on Saturday and saw they were offering £15 for Entertainment and £1 each on Entertainment, Kids, and Boxsets. Phoned them, told them I wanted Sky Q too, but was told couldn’t have Sky Q in conjunction with that offer. Oh really?

    10 minutes later, I’ve got -

    Sky Q Experience (the UHD/multiroom thing)
    2TB box, 1 mini box
    Entertainment
    HD
    Kids
    Boxsets
    Superfast Fibre

    Total - £56 (plus the one-off payment of £30 for Sky Q installation)

    I’m happy with that - new 65” LG arrives the day before my installation day - smiles all round!
