Asking for someone else. Current contact ended (or just ended)
Sky Signature & Multiscreen. What kind of price for those?
EDIT No internet or phone as that's via BT.

The best I got for signature, multi screen and Netflix, no internet was £48 down from £59.50 so I cancelled

paul2louise

Paying £76 for Sig, sports & Netflix

Offered 
Signature £26.50
Sports £24
Netflix £5

Said that's the best they could do so I am going to phone back and cancel. I have recordable HD box in bedroom so can sack the Q box

Ok, just got a deal by calling instead of crappy texting/webchat. Scotland so much better and quicker

FF150 broadband £26

Broadband boost £4

Signature £25.50

Netflix £11.50

Multi room £10

Sky cinema(with 2 free Vue tickets pm)£6

Wouldn’t have gone for this but cinema tickets will be used by someone in the family, normally £5 each and includes paramount +

Total £83

Quite happy with that

luke105

Sky sig £20.50
sky movies £6
Sky kids 
HD £4
Ultra HD £1 
Sky Kids £3 

£34.50 (24 month contract) 

We watch a lot of paramount plus so it’s cheaper to take Sky movies for £6 and get it for free (normally £6.99) 

need the kids channels so no choice. Can’t stand SD, I’m sure sky make it look worse on purpose. 

The sky signature is ok, don’t use it that much I suppose but I’m on Sky Q do enjoy the use of recording and the epg is still the best out there.

I had the below offer two weeks after cancelling which I accepted - best offer before cancellation was £40, and they really would not budge from it.

Signature - £20.50
Netflix (without ads) - £10.50
HD - £4

Total £35 + £10 one off admin fee

They originally wanted to charge me £36 + £20 admin fee, but when I pushed back on the admin fee they reduced the price to the above. Judging by previous posts, it's certainly possible for anyone to get them down to £20.50 for signature, and £4 for HD after cancellation.

If I had been offered a deal like that we might have stayed with Sky but never mind, it’s off and we are just waiting for the bag to return the Sky Q equipment. 

We had had no contact from Sky other than the information about the return of the equipment 👍👍👍

Admittedly the contact was only a text, saying it’s not too late to leave, and to ring a number or visit the Sky website to review options. It was after I started a web chat, and asked what they could offer me, that I received the above offer.

As we just had the signature package I doubt Sky will view us as a significant financial loss to their business despite our 27 years with them.

The return box arrived this morning so I will pack the sky Q equipment into the box and post it back to them on Monday..

The only real thing we miss is the familiarity of the sky EPG.

I've just tried to get a better deal. Paying £117.50 at the moment. 

Signature
Sports
Kids
Cinema
HD
Broadband 60mb.

They could only offer me £102 a month. 

I've cancelled, hoping I can get a better deal as don't really want to leave

Just renewed the following (was paying £88.50 previously):

• Sky Signature 36.50 18.50
• Boost to Netflix Premium 14.50 11.50
• Sky Kids 7.00 4.00
• Sky Sports Complete including Sky Sports+ 33.00 15.00
• Sky Sports HD 6.00 2.00 
• Sky HD 9.00 5.00
• Multiscreen 15.00 0.00
• Ultra HD 4.00 1.00
• Sky Broadband Ultrafast Plus (500MB)  53.00 33.00

New total for a 24 month term is £90/month, so a £1.50 monthly increase.
The £1.50 price difference is an increase for Netflix Premium (+£4.50/mth) and decrease for Ultra HD (-£3/mth).

There was a £20 admin fee which I protested, this is being reduced to £5 (via a £15 account credit)

Is this amount in the similar range for other deals offered?
Even though I have committed, is there a cooling off period so I can still fully cancel for any better offers achievable?
