A question about : Sky, Virgin & BT TV Haggle down prices and get serious discounts Article Discussion

Last night I phoned up to leave sky as we are moving house. We have been out of contract for some time, but never tried to get a deal before. Spoke to a very helpful lady in retentions who let me upgrade my package (basic + sports) to everything and then gave me a 50% discount on the whole lot for 6 months. Ive gone from paying Ј40 p/m to Ј24p/m and now I get the movies! Happy days.

A question about : Free SKY ( Almost )

Currently I do not have SKY as I do not see it is worth the price to pay for it.

However if I use topcashback they give Ј121.20 cashback
and SKY are giving Ј75 bill credit on the fist bill

all this is on a minimum 12 month contract with the basic package being Ј16.13 a month with a Ј10 setup fee.

So over 12 months it would cost Ј193.56 + Ј10 setup fee
with all incentives of Ј196.20 leaving Ј7.36 for a years worth of SKY

A question about : Digital TV switchover problem

I have a very old 14 portable TV with no scart socket, it also cannot be tuned in as the remote control unit failed a few years ago, so I can only receive the basic 4 channels (yes its that old even ch5 isnt tuned in). Once the analogue reception is switched off later this year (Granada region) this TV will be completely useless.

A question about : I have half a minidish..can I resurrect it?

Just the sub-forum I need..

We've moved into a flat..it has 2 aerials, and half a minidish. Both Aerials go into downstairs' flat..PITA. WE have what was once possibly a sky minidish..oval, dark grey perforated metal, no markings, coax coming in through the wall.

We have a freeview box and an indoor amp'd aerial..the signal is a joke, the channels recievable doubly so.

A question about : Sky

Hi there, this is my second thread, its an issue which I could do with a little advice. basically to cut a long story short, decided to take out sky plus. Bought the box and installation for the price they were offering and signed papers for a years contract.
