Sky just refuse to haggle with me!

A modern TV should be capable of upscaling anyway.

I'm literally in the same boat as you.
I bit the bullet today and cancelled EVERYTHING. 
I have no idea at the moment what I'm going to do after the 31days are up. But I'm damn sure I'm not going to put up with 2 price increases within my 18 month contract.
I've been with sky for nearly 14 years.
Sorry to hyjack your post (I started a post of my own) but just wanted  to say your not alone.
The prices are ridiculous and unaffordable for me now to.

Cancel the full package and search for a BB provider that offers up to 76 Mb at around £26 or under. If you wont be watch any TV then also cancel the TV licence, that's another £159 (£13.25 per month) saved. Unless you want the fastest download drop to an up to 38 Mb speed that will be less than £20 per month, £240 per year, Netflix £5.99 per month, one screen, Amazon Prime £79 per year or Disney plus £79 yearly, even the lot will be less than the £1044 you pay sky yearly.

If you mean upscaling SD to HD (say) then the old saying of "can't make a silk purse out of a pigs ear" comes to mind, SD to UHD just makes me shudder.
