TV MoneySaving

A question about : Virgin Media

My daughter and son in law are in the process of moving house but the new house does not support Virgin. They asked to cancel their account but Virgin are asking for Ј240 for the remainder of their account. Is this right? Surely it is not the householder at fault but the company as the area does not support cable TV only satellite or freeview, otherwise they would stay with Virgin. Any advice welcome.

A question about : Cancel Sky early?

I've tried to cancel my sky package a month early and they are insisting that you cannot cancel early under no circumstances.

Is this the usual stance Sky takes and is it the correct one?

A question about : Leave Sky and go to Freesat

As the title suggests I am considering leaving Sky and moving over to Freesat, I would appreicate any advice on whether Freesat is any good.

Multiroom
HD Subscription - currently on a 12 month 1/2 price deal until May 2013
Sky Talk Anytime calls
Sky Line Rental
Sky Broadband unlimited

Total cost = Ј67 a month

A question about : Getting Sky set up for the first time??

Just wondering what's involved in getting Sky installed for the first time?

I know i know - a guy comes out & before you know it you now have Sky. But i want to know what they'll be doing exactly. Fixing what where, drilling what where etc.

The house does have a Sky dish with i think 4 ports.

A question about : Sky Multi Room

Hi,

Just been on Sky chat for Family bundle, Sky Sports, Sky Movies, HD and Multi Room.

Came up with monthly figure of Ј60.75, then a credit of Ј75.

Still to much for my budget, the person then said add Multi Room (Ј11.25) later, which could be half price or less.

Is this a genuine.

Any advice please.

Best answers:

• I think Multiroom (or "multiscreen" as it's now called) at Ј11.25 extra per month is correct. (Not sure what you are asking.)

A question about : Sky cancelled

I have given my 31 days notice to cancel Sky and already my family are complaining about recording tv.

I have an LG smart tv with HD Freeview. My question is what is the cheapest way to record tv, in the event that I am not offered some sort of deal by Sky?

A question about : Sky tv, remove package to trigger offers

Can anyone point me in the right direction. Not long ago I read a forum post that described that visiting mysky and choosing my packages. When choosing remove pack, then can't afford, it was mentioned that it would show offers to tempt you to keep the chosen pack. Just need to find the instructions to at what point it offers.

Searched here and hukd chat but can't find it

Thanks in advance

Neil
