Installation Fees?

    Just a quick question.
    Sky installation (basic package) = £80.
    " " " " (full package) = £60.
    Who gets the extra £20?
    It is the exact same installation for the installer, but does he/she (let's not be sexist here) get more money for the job?
    Where does your fee go? OK, I know that the £10 you pay in the shop goes to the retailer, but does the retailer get a comission from Sky also. Does the installer get to keep all the installation fee,i.e £60 or £80, or does the installer have to pay back the extra £20 for basic installs?
    Sorry for all the questions, but I was just curious.
    Any installers out there willing to share some info? :confused:

    Quite simple really.
    Afaik Sky subsidise the instalation of the Full package by £20 more.
    The installer is paid the same Measley amount for both.
    I could be wrong now-but do you not see the sense in it?

    The amount the retailer receives is exactly the same in both instances it just means that the consumer pays an extra £20. I always advise people to take the top package and then modify the package in time, does not cost anymore.
