I've looked on Sky's site and they seem to want £99 for the box and a £60 install fee.
Has anybody successfully managed to negotiate a lower rate with them, either by agreeing to upgrade their package or by asking nicely, or do they tend to stick largely to their guns on that cost?
Anybody managed to get the upgrade for free? If so, what tactics did you use?
I'm thinking I might cancel my subscription completely, wait a few weeks, and then re-subscribe (to get the free installation that they're offering new customers) - has anybody gone down that route?

Tell them that your leaving as you cant afford to pay that amount for the box and tell them that you really like being with sky but under the cirumstances that you have to leave and dont give up on the first person that you talk to if you dont get a good result. They dont want to lose any of there customers. Hope this helps
