    Default Sky Magazine

    Right, this has anoyed me for ages.

    Why the hell do I have to pay for a magazine that I don't want, and if I tell them to cancel it they'll still charge me for it?????

    Basically we have it and throw it in the recycling each month.

    Its just a means for them to tell you when their prices are going up!!

    The sub is inclusive of the price of the magazine.

    If you cancel the magazine you will get no reduction on your sub!

    What Nibb said. If you have the magazine, you get charged £1 for it, but £1 get's taken off your bill.

    So you're no better off really

    robbing bastards aren't they.
    Basically they're telling you that you HAVE to pay for it even if you don't have it.

    No, it's just that if you have it it's free, lol.

    It works out better if you have it

    IIRC the magazine is a tax dodge.
