Any idea for what should be a target price for pretty much the full works on TV (less Kids) with no broadband or phone tie-in.

Looking at Sky Q with one additional room (already have the kit setup)
Full Sports (Sky + BT), Ultra HD, Netflix, Movies optional.

Just trying to get an idea for what is reasonable (initial price quoted was £84), also need to benchmark against Virgin anyway as I have my broadband with them.

Signature £13 to £19
Kids £1
Hd £1 to £2
Sky sports £15
Sky movies £5 to £8
Bt sport £13
Multiscreen £5 to £10
Ultra HD free
Netflix £2.50 to £4
Broadband superfast with tie in £18 to £25
No tie in £32

The above is all possible depending on the advisor you get 

Many thanks!

In the end they just came back with the £84 offer, so I cancelled.

Virgin were offering about half the price (albeit excluding Netflix) so I will go with that as the other option

Have a look on sky,com/mydeal now you’ve cancelled, see what’s there if anything

Annoyingly the "deals" link never works on my account, just keeps going to a page with "We are having technical difficulties"

Same for me. I got a text message a couple of days ago and the link they sent in that was:
sky.com/reviewmyoptions
Log in first to the sky website then paste that address in and see if it works for you.
They have a live chat option as well which was available within 2 minutes for me to chat to someone

Thanks that link does actually work for me, but when I click through from there on the link to look at offers online it shows as ineligible, so I guess they aren't too bothered about my departure. 

To be honest I'm not sure if I will even go with Virgin, their broadband recently has been flaky enough to make me not want to tie myself even closer with another contract. In the absence of a better offer from Sky I might just get rid of the pay TV for a while, to be honest I don't really watch THAT much of it, I have enough streaming and other content to get by with. It is probably very nice to have rather than "have to have" for me these days.

Plus the last time I left they were practically giving it away to me 6 months later (although I appreciate they are under new ownership now)

I think it only works once you’ve cancelled and they’ve got  something to offer you

I had cancelled, they just clearly had nothing they wanted to offer me!

Haha my mate still has it in his page 2 weeks after agreeing a new deal,  it’s annoying cos they wanted £19 for sports with him, so he ditched that yet on his my deals page it says £14.  You can’t click the £14 though as you have to take the signature at £17, which he has cheaper.  All very bizarre.

Has anyone taken the deal for TV & Superfast Broadband for £39 (Signature at £21 and Superfast Broadband at £18) and managed to get a discount on the HD? I took this deal in the end but they would not budge on charging £6 for HD so I'm paying £45 a month.

Sky to increase prices as of today I urge people to cancel you will be given a deal to stay

Thought it was from Apr 1, isn’t it just new customers from today?
