Sky+ at Curry's....£69 installed....!

TheStroppyOne

My mum recently moved to a new house in Mid Wales and could only receive snowy tv channels 1-4 because of the hills. Normail freeview does not work there and they dont have cable. :wall:

We gave her £150 to have the Sky Freeview installed and then she was kept waiting for over 1 1/2 by a local sky installer....so when i saw this post i most pleased, mum made a special trip into town (2 hours round-trip) the lady in the shop picked it straight up off the shelf and she was out of there in 10 mins no probs AND saved herself £75 plus now its up and running and still no contact from the local installer!

A very BIG Thankyou to the OP x :beer:

Can i ask a question lease? Do you have to have a phone line to have sky installed???

This is not a good offer for new customers as through Quidco you get £125 cashback..............so it costs only £4 including set up to get sky+

But you have to sign up for 12 months through quidco don't you?? This one at currys has no contract

I got one today without buying the TV no quibbles - Thanks to the posters for this

The offer ends 24/12 and yes you do have to have a 12 month contract, but then if you buy Sky you tend to keep it at least that long !

Think i'm gonna snap this one up. Thanks OP.

One thing, if i have to sign up for another 12 months, will it be an issue that i'm moving in April-ish? Can i just transfer contract to the new house oop north?

Cheers

This from another forum from someone who works for currys;

1. The offer of Sky+ for £29 + £30 installation is for ALL customers, and there is no need to buy anything from store, including a TV.

2. The boxes are NOT refurbs. If you receive a refurb, this is something to take up with Sky as they are using old boxes to do installations with. The box you receive should be brand new.

3. The offer is for NEW and EXISTING customers.

4. Existing customers do not need to change their current package at all and have no obligation to take Sky Talk or Sky Broadband.

5. The offer ends on 24/12/07.

6. A failed installation due to it being down as a relocation at Sky's end is a problem with Sky's booking service. There is only one way this offer can be booked in in-store and it should go through as an upgrade for new customers or a new install for new customers.

7. The Sky+ box on www.currys.co.uk has nothing to do with this offer and is not the box you will receive.

8. You can not walk into Currys, sign up for the offer and walk away with a box to install yourself. Sky send an installer.

9. If you have paperwork telling you that you have to pay £10 per month for the Sky+ subscription, this is because the silly store rep has not chosen the 'replace current box' (only applies to EXISTING customers) option on the system. Choosing this option during the order removes the £10 charge and is a bug in the order process. You can either go back to Currys and tell them what I have said, or call Sky and the £10 monthly payment will be sorted out.

10. Installation dates are typically available from 3 business days after you sign up. You give your preferred date and Sky will contact you if they can't make it then. If Sky are able to meet your date, they will contact you by post a few days before your install with information.

I registered just to post this and really hope it helps people out. This really is a fabulous offer that I signed up to myself (I was an existing customer of Sky) and had zero problems with my installation.
