  • 1 week into my cancellation. Been offered the following deal.

    300MB Fibre      £32
    Sky Signature     £20
    Sky Sports HD    £18
    Netflix   £4.50
    HD        £4
    UHD      £1

    Total price is £79.50

    Do people think this is a reasonable deal? I was trying to get them down to £70 to no avail when I had a call off the cancellation team. Vary wary of price rises over the 2 years taking this closer to £100. How they still charge for HD separately is beyond me. 
    TV prices look OK to me - but fibre price a bit high.
    Can you get those TV prices honoured without the broadband ? Furthermore ,have you actually cancelled b/band rather than switched away?
    Thanks. I haven't cancelled broadband, just the tv and I imagine they would honour the TV without broadband. I asked what the deal was for 150MB, which is what we currently on and we are fine with. They said it was only 50p cheaper, and it wasn't on offer, which I was dubious about.

    1 week into cancellation (so service is off), or 1 week into cancellation notice period?

    You get different offers in both circumstances.
    One week into cancellation notice period. I'm willing to wait to get theprice down but I'm wondering if Sky still give the bigger discounts in these circumstances compared to previous years

    Something must have changed at Sky or it's just me.

    Switched off 4 weeks ago and calls, SMS or email and I have them on in preferences or comes.

    Thinking of going to Virgin media for fibre and TV but it's only streaming they do now as I had Q but I have heard a lot of bad things from mates and family about Sky streaming so I will wait and see.
