Got the Sky engineer coming tomorrow to fit Sky+ for nothing! Got sick of family and friends being 'thrown' sky products and us with a bog standard box… so rang up the sales team and said sky's more hassle than its worth and I want to cancel my subs. They fell over themselves to keep my custom.
I was offered £50 HD Box plus standard installation, plus £10 extra/month for HD channels.
Free Sky+ box and free installation.
Went for the latter! Personally I don't think HD is worth it at the moment (especially through Sky and they are having a big HD sales campaign at the moment). For the HD experience I'd recommend a Blu-Ray player.
Whatever you decide, ring them up and get negotiating you never know what they might offer. 😀
