Re: More price rises

well that was hard work trying to cancel my service. Guy kept trying to offer me stuff even though I made it clear I was not interested.

Best offer was 6 month loyalty discount and Sports and movies discount taking it to £78 for 6 month and then up to 98 for the other 6 month. Not worth it.

Sky Q install is 17th Sept.

Re: More price rises

Suprised they didn't tell you how there new box will be able to record more and be vastly superior in every way just like their broadband.

They are all the same Sky usually tell you how you'll lose Sky Atlantic blah blah......

Re: More price rises

well ordered SkyQ last night

2TB SkyQ box
box set with sport and movies
multiscreen pack
£50 pre-paid mastercard

all for £41.40

I'm keeping the virgin internet as we don't have Sky / BT fiber.

and it still works out cheaper currently I pay £75 a month now I will be paying £73 so in effect I'm getting sports and movies and multiroom for free.
and for the cherry on top £110 quidco cashback.
very happy days.

Re: More price rises

Got ya - thanks. I hadn't realised you could combine it with Quidco. I think that's my mind definitely made up!
