Deals On Sky TV Service - (Mostly Cancellation deals)

I'm confused here. Who have you got your BB with? If it's with VM you can sign up in your wife's name as a new customer and you're sorted for another year. It can't be done with Sky unfortunately. Have you considered a TV and BB deal with VM? They've some good deals available at the moment.

Did you check if Sky can provide broadband to your estate?

My latest 1 year "deal" with VM is up now so thinking of switching to Sky for TV + 1GB Broadband for €60pm, currently paying 98pm for TV and 500mb broadband with VM. Will maybe just switch back to VM again this time next year and keep doing the same for the foreseeable.

If I ring VM will they match it do ye reckon? Also is there any initial setup costs associated with Sky or anything else to be aware of if I make the switch?

just to add another 2 data points:

had sky for 30 a month - plan was going up to ~43 a month. cancelled it. got offer for 10 euro "basic" (i.e. free channels). said no. got email 2 weeks later offering same 43 package for ~21 a month. still cancelling it. friend was on same plan for 43, got same cancellation offer and ended up keeping it.

"get Sky TV for just €20.90 a month for 12 months, when you sign up for another year. Normally €43 a month"

i bought a high end sat box and a unicable lnb (had saorview aerial already). can view/record/watch across all saorview channels at the same time as viewing/recording/watching large amount of sat channels (again - all at the same time!)

think sky must be feeling the pain. the tv box i use (openvix) has better UI than sky hd+ and sky q. will pay itself off in less than a year at skys inflated prices - only missing the box sets which are a) poor picture quality and b) failed to download repeatedly causing frustration.

Just rang and cancelled. Just went from €90 per month to €175. When I cancelled they offered it for €136 per month.

Still too expensive. I've signed up for Virgin Media, but how long after cancelling can you sign up as a new customer?

Just quick update

Got an email offering the tv for €20.90 a month so rang them again to see if they would add broadband also

Got both for 53 a month for 12 months tv is signature package so happy enough with that

i also chanced my arm for a new remote as old one was in bits and it arrived next day by courrier,

hi all can someone give me a quick answer?! Im online with agent who is trying cut my package here. Im wondering do I need HD still? extra €5 a month, thanks

Love HD myself.

I see they're offering SkyQ plus free Netflix and 1GB broadband for €50/pm plus a €50 giftcard. Works out about €46 each month. Seems a great deal when you consider Netflix starts at €8!

I'd sign up if I wasn't already with them paying €40/pm for 1Gb broadband!

Eh? You're both quoting the same package.

I'm not seeing any difference in what the previous poster mentioned and what you linked to.... The E50 package.

Yes, I just a look there now and you are indeed correct regarding the difference in broadband speeds. Apologies for the confusion.

Have SKY+HD and out of contract soon; are they still offering threat-of-cancellation deals for Sky+HD or are they forcing everyone to SkyQ/Glass?

Strange call with Sky yesterday.

Rang up to give notice to end my sports subscription for the summer also gave notice to for my HD sub and multiroom too. No attempt from the agent to convince me to keep them at all - he just put the cancellation through and ended the call. Call lasted about 3 minutes.
