    Hi

    I am with UPC about 6 months and am going to switch to Freesat (still have sky dish on side of house). So my question is can I downgrade to phone and broadband without any penalties or is it the sky situation with a 1 year contract?

    Thanks

    Well if you get just Phone and Broadband you will need to pay €8 per month extra.

    OK I rang UPC and they want €100 cancellation charge from me!
    Is that correct?
    I am with them about 7 months.

    Im with UPC a while, so cancelation costs arent an issue, BUT you say that its €8 more to have phone and broadband that the phone and broadband + TV ?

    That doesnt make alot of sense.

    edit : Unless you mean this

    "Price shown is when added to an existing TV connection. Otherwise a Fibre Power Broadband Standalone Charge of €7.75 a month applies. "

    About the cancelation, €100 - this will be a fixed penalty, its to cover thier costs of the setup.
