It was signature and sports £33.
No idea why only those?

To make it up to what i currently have I'd have to add HD, UHD, and ultimate which would make total £44.
I'm currently paying £51 and it was going to £62.
Like I said it's so so, but looking at what others have achieved in hoping for a few more £££ off. Particularly as there will be price rises April.

Never had virgin.
It might be worth a call if offers don't improve with sky.
Saying that, just had a text off sky giving a phone number and messaging with an
" exclusive offer to come back to sky".
I'll give it a try sometime tomorrow to see what they say.

Does anyone know how long you’ve waited before Sky have offered you a deal? 

I started my cancellation period about 10 days ago and I’ve heard nothing from them. 

I had Sky signature with Ultimate add on, Sky sports, HD and UHD. Was paying £52 a month, they offered to keep at the same price straight away but I’ve always got a better deal after cancelling so thought I’d do the same again.
