Sky free TV call!

[ancojo]

I cancelled my Sky TV entertainment HD pack back in June even though they offered some ok deals, I received a call today offering me the same package for a year for......FREE! Yip totally free, no gimmicks or catches just FREE TV for the year!

well best deal i could get was family pack hd, with sky talk and unlimted bb for £40 after phone calll today as my last deal ran out this month so saving £16 a month worth it for an 15 min call, could cancelled and waited but rather keep it on than loose out on some stuff i do watch

I cancelled the lot on Tuesday as no good cheap deals were offered, even when I offered to pay a year line rental up front like last year.
Had a missed call at home yesterday from them but they wouldn't talk to the missus and didn't call back when she told them I'd be in.

Should be an interesting conversation should they actually phone back. Already started the migration of phone+BB to ee so should be able to see I'm serious. Not sure if I can back-track though if they offer me a deal I can't refuse.

Seen quite a few people jumping ship recently.
Im in the same boat too, took movie & sport off last month after running an Android box for a couple of weeks. Will be cancelling the rest of the package next week and seeing if we can get by with free sat, now tv & the android box.
Obviously if sky come back with a good deal I'll probably be tempted back

Bit off topic but virmin wanted to put my broadband up by £1,50 a month to make it £23. I called them up the point blank refused and said cancel it. Low and behold they scrapped the price increase and dropped £2 off the bill and now im paying £18. I will not be held to ransom by these cunts lol

As for sky i get the full package hd and everythjng for £25 a month. I even scrapped cs lol

I'm moving house soon gona ring Virgin and cancel my broadband It's £37.50 alone.

Cancelled mine 3 weeks ago as was paying circa £80, no offers. Put in a different name and used a friend who was working there their 50% off friends and family plus £50 tesco card.

Yesterday got a letter asking me to come back 60% off and £100 credited to bill, ffs. This was about 2 weeks after cancellation. Stupid really because i told them I was moving when I cancelled so if you were you would already have a new installation date from virgin, BT or whoever.

So hold out for the 60% letter guys and £100 bill credit

Heres 2 upcoming months bills and as you can see FREE!!!!!!!!!!!! Supposed to be £33 pm. Hope I've added it correct but not sure why you would need proof, I cant see the point of coming on and lying about some deal with Sky?

Ouch. I'm hurt.

Can't believe someone would go to the effort of making fake account page, just to prove a point.

BTW. Just checked my own sky account and they still have projected bills for my line rental for the next 3 months, even tho' I'm now with ee.



Grow up and pick your dummy up while you're at it.

As chizh states the print screen was for my projected bills which I will keep checking just incase they sneak in a full payment and as he also states why would I go to the hassle of making a fake account page?

Just chill its not the first time someones got a deal that doesn't add up, I fully understand the "Loyalty" point. I was with BskyB for about 10 years with no deals, I switched back to them only because it was a good deal due to being an ex O2 customer when Sky bought out O2 BB, I had to pay line rental and anytime calls but the TV entertainment HD package and BB was all free. I've been given the exact same package all over again, when the O2 switch free offer ended I cancelled and about 2 months later got "That" call offering it for free again! I didnt believe it myself as why offer it all for free other than maybe them hoping I get so hooked I decide to stay next year! Nope I'm a skin flint I wont pay for over priced TV, I begrudge paying the TV licence, fucking rip off! There isnt even a BBC+1.

So chill and if you can, why not cancel and wait a few month for that call that everyone seems to get offering deals?
