So after weeks of live chats I've finally settled 2 weeks before cut off. 
Ultimate

Sports

Kids

UHD

Ultrafast BB

£83 per month instead of 140 odd

No admin fee and a free extra mini box

I'm quite happy

If you don’t mind me asking, what would that be if you took off Kids & BB, and also does that included April’s price increase?

I’ve got an offer for £44 (Signature, Sports, Ultimate, UHD), but they keep saying £50 after the price rise and the most they have budged on that is a whopping 67p.

They work out at 40 quid but that's including the price hike.

Update from cancelling back in June 2022.
Monthly offer received through post £29 for Sky Signature in standard definition, Sky Sports in high definition with one-off £10 admin fee.

Rang up and admin fee agreed to be waived.
Adding high definition for Signature will cost £6 extra making total monthly £35.

Price will increase in April by 8% bringing new monthly to £37.80

Price will increase again following April by another 8% making new price at least £40.82 during remainder of contract. 

No offer of any credits, fixed prices or anything else.

Have not bothered.

Presume that was based on reactivating an existing Sky HD box ?
Not a bad price compared with Sky "list" price, slightly better than I settled on back in December - but ,as always, its a question of personal values. I'm getting very near my ceiling !!
 Certainly sports offerings are getting less attractive (unless you are a Premier league nut!) and the necessity of taking Signature with Sports, and extra payment for HD, definitely grates.

Agreed a new deal over the weekend of £48 posy increase for Signature, Sports, Ultimate and HD & UHD. May not be good to some, but it works for me. I also got the distinct impression that they were not going to budge any further.

Now just got the hassle of sorting out my future bills as they have applied an admin fee when they said they wouldn’t and the bills don’t match what was agreed.

Hi, the number I use is 03337591318. I have been calling & been receiving better offers from Sky via email. Every time I call with the use of this forum they/I ask for a little bit more. I'm about to renew tomorrow for 18 months. the deal I hope to get is above. I agreed it in principle with a call handler last week. When you ring & the autobot asks the reason for your call, always use the 'come back to sky' phrase. Good luck

Quick update. I renewed today. Signature 15pcm, 18 moths deal. No HD. £30 credit. £10 fee waived. Unfortunately they would not give me HD as previously agreed. Price will rise in April.
