Seems that they are offering a standard £10 discount offer regardless of the package - the higher your current sub. , the less attractive that £10 is going to be !!

Well, well - just looked at Sky app and the discount for contract renewal has gone up to £15pm - still not good enuf but interesting that the offer is getting better as the end of the minimum contract period draws nigh !!

Hi, 

I was paying £41.40 for the following which we never really watched much off anyway if I'm honest:

Sky signature - £19.50
Sky sports complete - £8
Sky Cinema - £3.90
Sky Sports HD - £2
Sky HD - £4
Sky Go Extra - £0
Ultra HD - £4

Price rise was pushing this up to £51 but still in contract so took out sky stream with sky essential TV for £18 to cancel out the Sky Q contract, I then cancelled sky stream within my cooling of period and now have freeview - cost £0 per month! 

That's a very cute manoeuvre. Did you read about that somewhere on the forum?

Cheers

I cancelled Sports and Signature package last month and they aren't giving any good deals on Sky Q anymore, on live chat for me anyway. They are just pushing you towards Sky Stream and Glass. Can anyone recommend a good recordable freeview/freesat box now I can't use the Sky Box properly anymore?

For Freeview, I would recommend the Manhattan.
