Sky Contract Question

HI guys
Been with Sky for 7 months now, and initially only took out the Entertainment pack with a £5 discount for 18 months.
Also boxsets, and HD for £5 each per month.
So recently I upgraded to Cinema ( £6 ), Sports ( £16 ) and multiroom ( £13 ) in an 18 month contract.
So does that mean my initial entertainment pack will be out of contract at the same time as the cinema and sports ? As it's not possible to have sports and cinema without entertainment, hence the question
phoned Sky and the bloke said the discounts will all ( cinema, sports, entertainment ) end on the same date ( 18 months from my most recent contract ), so the end of 2020
Does that sound right ? :T
Thanks

If you're paying £20 for Entertainment then yes, that's the 'normal' price for Entertainment when agreeing to a minimum term contract.0 -

On MySky app it says £5 discount off £27 which equals £22 per month. ( SkyQ )0 -
I thought the discount of £5 from entertainment would run out before the end of the contract, but sky said it won't0

Just checked and it has gone up to £22 with a contract or £27 on a rolling monthly, no idea when it increased.I thought the discount of £5 from entertainment would run out before the end of the contract, but sky said it won't
As long as you agree to a minimum term (12 or 18 months normally) they'll knock a fiver off for the length of the contract.0 -

That answers it for me, thanks dude :money:
I got confused because I took out the cinema and sports package 6 months after the initial contract of Entertainment.0 -
You were right, I checked my messages and it says that a new contract for entertainment starts and finishes when the sports/cinema does.

"Standard" Entertainment went up by £2 in April - for the first time, I got stung for the full increase because I'm on a deal which is broken down into individual items rather than the % discount I had for the previous few years:(0
