    What do people do when their contract is up?

    Mine is up next month. 7th i think. New price is €64. Was €35
    But new customer offer is €30. Do people just order as a new customer to someone elses name in the house or whats the story.

    Happy with the service but not paying €64

    I am siro. Sky allowed renewal at 30 after year 1. But April increase applied 6 months in.

    At re newal again, they'd do 36 but I know there'll be an April increase so jumped to digiweb. even if price was same as competitors but more than new customers, I'd move out of principal.

    Wheel and deal via WhatsApp and just be blunt with them.

    Best sales line I got was "but if you move, you will no longer have access to sky hub" and he rattled off the features. I responded not to worry as I've never used it and it's still in its box. Suddenly his supervisor approved 30 a month again.
