I have for many years negotiated Sky down annually, but am on first year with Now. Is it the same process basically?Not fibre, it was offered more or less instantly once I said wanted to renew and were there any offers available?I already knew that £21.99 was on offer to others before I asked the question so in a way I already knew the answer but left them the opportunity to volunteer itI never bothered to haggle as it is only £4 pm above what was already paying and for that sum CBA to try & change ISP
