Despite being only 11 months into my 18 month contract I got a letter yesterday to tell me that my Sky bill was going up by 6%. I was under impression with other companies that legally they could only change it by the RPI amount (1.4%) - are Sky bound by the same rules and if so does this mean I can negotiate my contract ?

And you cannot cancel it either.0
