cinderellaxx

im so annoyed have been a customer of sky since dec 2005 rang them there to upgrade to sky+ and they said i'd have to pay €199.50 incl instalation i then asked why would i want to pay that when new costomers get it for €24.50+50 installation fee the guy on the phone wouldnt answer my question directly and said that he had to pay the €199.50 also,i still wasnt happy and explained i would not be paying that and could cancel and get my husband to ring up and coz he's a new customer he could get it at the new costomer price he said no he couldnt because it goes on the address and it would be 12mts b4 we could do that....i feel like just cancelling it completly my heart is telling me to get the sky+ as have been wanting it for a while but my head is telling me no coz i feel like im being ripped off!!anyway question is does anyone know a way of getting round this and paying the smaller amount??

sorry for the long post

yeah just cancel it and put it in someone elses name sky really dont care if its in mickey mouses name just as long as there is money in the account every month to meet the standing order....

I had the same problem,i rang and they quoted me €199 and i said i have been with Sky since 1992 and as a good customer i feel i should get it at the new customer rate.He wouldnt budge so i called his bluff and asked to cancel my account,he put me on hold for 5 minutes and came back with an offer of€99.00 supplied and fitted,so i was happy!

There's no problem with canceling and taking out a new sub after it in the hubby/wifey's name.
