hi everyone

My Sky Q was cancelled yesterday so I have no service. I was offered Sky Puk Essential for £7 a month.

What deals have you been offered when the TV has been switched off?

I pay £28 a month for 500 Mbps Fibre Broadband with Sky.

I see looking at my future Sky bills that from April there is a £3.00 increase on my total bill.

Looks like extra £2 per month for Sky Sports and I see Netflix with Ads goes from £4.50 to £5.50 per month.

Anyone else see increases. I'm surprised Signature and HD packs are not getting increases on Sky Q

I see (before discounts) :
Signature going from £40.00 to £42.50
Ultimate TV (aka Netflix standard with ads) going from £4.50 to £5.50
Sky Cinema going from £19.00 to £20.00

Interesting as before discounts my Signature has gone from £40.50 to £42.50, but then I also see that they have increased my discount by £2 to compensate.

Maybe this is because I get £2 increase on Sky Sports? They might be playing games to try to keep the increase to between £3-£4 per month per person?

So the yearly fun and games begin again from Sky.

Are you still in your minimum period? I'm out of contract, though still getting an £18 discount on signature, so my net price is going from £22.00 to £24.50. Maybe they are doing something different for people still in their minimum period to those not.

I'm still in contract and pay £10 for signature currently. Contract runs until mid 2027 I believe.

Looks like they've just added the increase onto my Sky Sports and Netflix element

£10 for signature - that's very good!
I assume it depended on taking other things too, such as sports.
I've been just wanting signature, though have taken HD and Netflix when offered for free on the MySky app.
Also took Cinema recently on a short freebie + a few months cheap deal (no lock in).
But if there's any trick to get signature for such a low price please share it.

My increase is from £90.50 to £99.99. Bearing in mind when I took the deal out the cost was £80.50. A near 25% increase for a discounted package over two years is insane.
