    Someone posted a trick awhile back for getting sky to call you. It was some request a call back. Can't seem to find it in the thread.

    Cheers, used that link earlier today, cut off for 2 weeks, got call back, got variety, sports, movies & HD for 12 months for €48. Happy with that

    While you were two weeks down, what tv stations came through to your tv? I'm planning on doing this too but could do with some options for the cut off period!!

    Also, do you have multi room included in that price?

    You will get all the Ftv channels eg BBC 1 & 2, music and other ones.

    Just had the quickest cancellation ever.

    Offered me basic + sports and HD for €52. I said no, so he offered the same for 1 month at €35. No again, so that was that.

    Folks. Has anyone managed to get a cost reduction/deal while still in contract? I am still in contract for 2 more months. Thanks.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,486 ✭✭✭Mountjoy Mugger


    I got my first deal when I gave them notice 11 months into my 12 month contract.

    I doubt if you'll get anything earlier as you can't get out of it until 12 months have elapsed and you have already committed to pay a certain amount. Why should they change it?

    Currently on free for 6 months and 3 months @€;9.

    Got a Call today offering me HD for 7.50 instead of €15.

    Only snag was a 12 month contract.
    I declined the offer.

    Cos I'm special :)

    I had left them to go to Eircom family and friends.
    Got a call 2 weeks later with an offer I couldnt refuse. As f&f is free TV for a year I switched back with no contract.

    Just joined Sky as a first time customer (I know!) yesterday. Thanks to boards.ie, I knew better than to walk in off the street and say 'sign me up'. It's taken many days, but I've got Half price variety, movies and sports for €40.50 a month for 12 months. Carphone Warehouse are offering this to new AND existing customers til mid November. But I didn't go through CPW. Sky in the shopping centres magically found the deal through head office when I informed them of the better deal with CPW. The deal was sweetened with free installation , box & a better multiroom deal. Maddening! So you've taught me to shop around, and see what's out there in 11 months time.


  • Registered Users Posts: 491 ✭✭brendan86


    Is the carphone warehouse offer still available? Half price?

    Did they offer you anything on HD?


  • Registered Users Posts: 120 ✭✭rosieirl


    The CPW deal is on until mid-November, from what I remember. But you'd be better off and ask yourself in store. I had no interest in HD, so it never came up. The CPW deal is half price variety (€18) plus sports (€18) plus movies add on (€4.50) for €40.50 for 12 months. Or variety plus sports for €36. And so on.

    I cancelled 2 weeks ago they offered 25% off but I wanted 50% they refused, I'm now on FTV and IPTV and being honest even if they offered 50% I wouldn't go back


  • Registered Users Posts: 176 ✭✭The Waxbill


    It's been a month since I was cut off. A week before I was cut off they rang and offered half price for 6 months, I refused as I wanted half price for 12 months, if they'd offered it for 9 months I'd probably have taken it. I've got FTA and saorview and it's just fine, I won't be going back to sky now no matter what they offer.

    Apologies for going slightly off-topic, but what FTA box did you get?

    Just using the sky box, plenty of channels on there.

    Just discovered on my credit card bill that my subscription offer has ended and my bill has gone up to €30.94 from €18.75. Forgot it was ending and they didn't let me know. I also pay my mothers bill which has gone from €14.75 to €24.23.

    Can anyone give me the telephone number for cancellations?

    It's probably asked before but any landline for them?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,858 ✭✭✭CuppaCocoa


    Rang them today and said I wanted to cancel. Got offered a discount but I said no and stuck to my guns. Was put through to another chap who then offered me the same deal for an extra six months with no contract. Happy enough! :D
