Chatted a couple more times to online advisor. Best available is still £83 for all TV and superfast bb. One advisor said £92 was now best but was then offered £83. They aren't budging on that. Still too high based on what I have seen on here...
I was warned that offers may disappear and next offer may be higher. Trying to scare me I think.0 -
£100 vouchers through MSE on fast broadband deals brings the price down a bit. Have asked SKY and they will not match the £100 voucher. Offer ends 27th January.

Sky disconnected me 9 days ago, I have only had one message from them which was about returning my equipment and the returns box arrived this morning, I was paying £30 for the below package before my deal ended and the best offer I have received ( about a week after I gave my notice ) from them is:
Sky Signature £16
Ultimate TV £6
Sky Sports £12
Sky HD £3
Sky UHD £2
One-off admin charge £20
Total £39
I am assuming since they have sent me the box to return my equipment that I won't be getting any more offers?0 -
I got cut off 3 weeks ago had some missed calls from sky finally got in touch yesterday. Offered sky Q signature for £16 and £50 credit got superfast BB for £221

I had a chat today using the link - I ended up removing BT sport for now and will probably see if I can negotiate it into the deal in a couple of weeks/month when I negotiate the renewal for broadband as the new renewal price did not seem good. I have everything else - Sports, Cinema, Kids, Ultimate, Signature, UHD and HD for £44.Kodi32 said:

Make £2019 in 2019 Challenge - £272.48/£20190 -
A week or two into cancellation and decided to give the chat a go today.
Was paying £32 for the below package and after a lot of negotiating only managed to get them down to £42 for renewal so decided t cancel.
After todays discussion I accepted £40. Stood firm on not paying the admin fee which was eventually reduced to £10 and then finally got the £10 credited back.
Happy with final price, think if I had broadband I`d have more bargaining power.
