Sky Friends and Family deal thread! Now with, er NOW deals!

[MissChief]

@MissChief does the £35/month offer include Sky Movies? Sorry for the noob question, I can see there's over 1,000 movies on demand but the actual movie channels?

Yes includes the movie channels.

 

[MissChief]

Anything you can do to help me @MissChief

I'm at the end of contract, been speaking to sky and they've offered me...

Sky Entertainment = £15 (£12 off for 18 months)
Sky HD = £5
Sky Fibre Unlimited = £8.01 (£13.99 off for 18 months)
Sky Line Rental = £18.99
Sky Q Multi-screen = £13
TOTAL = £60

Plus £75 for the 2tb Sky Q (currently have the 1tb).

£5 admin fee.

Extra £11 for movies, tied in for 18 months which I'm reluctant to do as wife will be on maternity leave from Oct and I could drop HD and multiroom to save some money but not movies if we have that.

I have nothing for existing customers and am unsure what's available or you'll be offered. @superdumper will be better placed to offer advice.

 

[MissChief]

anything you could do for me at all tempted to move away from virgin tv to sky tv only

anything would be appreciated if at all

cheers

Check out the offers in the first post for what's available.

 

[MissChief]

Is there any new deals for existing customers any time soon? My Family and Friends deal I got expires at the end of this month and my bills will shoot up from £52 to £100 a month.

All I am interested is in Sports in HD and entertainment.

Generally speaking I have nothing for existing customers I'm afraid.

 

[MissChief]

off my deal runs out this month and the cost increase hits hard doesnt it!

as I see above nothing really for existing customers at this time?

Sadly not, new customers only.

 

[MissChief]

Today I had a call from a 0800 number claiming to be Sky. They asked me to confirm details but when they asked for my full password I became suspicious. The caller was able to reel off a lot of detail about my account but I was still wary. He then went on to say his system had suddenly gone down and could we arrange a call back on Sunday, then he hung up. I have since contacted Sky and they don't belive it was them and their numbers begin with 0330 not 0800.

Dodge

When we outbound call it does come up as an 0800 number so could have been Legit. If it wasn't they'd likely have started talking about your account and asking for DD details etc.

 

[MissChief]

That's just new customers right?

Sadly yes.

 

[MissChief]

I'm an existing customer, around 13 months into an 18month contract, is it possible for me to enhance my current deal (i.e. use one of your codes and sign up for a further period?) I'm on £25 p/m for HD, Entertainment and the basics only with SkyQ.

Sadly not no. Brand new customers only.

 

[MissChief]

Dang! Any deals for existing customers on the horizon?

The only one I have is a discounted Q upgrade with Multiscreen but only for sky+HD without MS.

 

[MissChief]

Currently on virgin looking to swap are the offer on the front page still the latest?

They are. I've received your trust message, will respond shortly.

 

[MissChief]

Could I get a code ? Email in trust. Have a family member wanting to sign up .

Nothing through yet?

 

[MissChief]

Daft question - but do options two and three include Netfix? Or simply allow you to link you existing subscription?

If the deals mention Ultimate on demand that includes Netflix.

 

[MissChief]

Trusted you asking for a code for my mother @MissChief

Received, will sort tomorrow.

 

[MissChief]

Hi @MissChief,

I've sent you a trust for a code, i'd be grateful if you could send one as i'm looking to switch back to sky after 12 months on Virgin.
Can broadband and phone be added to these packages when ordering?

Thanks

They can yes. I see which code you've asked for. Code on the way in a few minutes.

@MissChief Hi mate, looking at sorting my parent's Sky bill out they were paying £14pm for just Entertainment on the old Sky+ box package. Dad got an email saying the price goes up £5pm, then got a further email recently giving him a £5pm discount offer automatically... So next month the bill goes up to £20.50pm.

What's the best way to sort them a discount again? I'd like to get him on Sky Q but he doesn't want to pay anymore, say if it's going to cost him £20pm+ (tight sod)

Would the first offer of Entertainment £11pm be any good? Is that on Sky+ or for Sky Q customers? Would it work if I cancelled Sky in my dad's name and took a new offer in my mum's name for them?

EDIT: Had a thought I'm sure I did this last year. Put cancellation request through, then logging in his Sky account he had a 40-50% discount offer. Does this still happen these days?

Cheers

My offers only work with new customers sadly.

 

[MissChief]

So would I be better off cancelling my dad's account and signing up in my mum's name instead?

I couldn’t possibly condone this action.

 

[MissChief]

Hi MissChief,

I am a new customer and I am looking for the below deal, is it possible to get a discount code please.

The package I am looking for is;

Sky Ultra HD 2th box
2 x 1tb Sky Q boxes
Sky Experience
Sky Essentials


Thanks in advanced,
Bashy

Send me a trust message? I have no codes for the third option left but still have options 1 & 2.

 

[MissChief]

what is the current deal?

Post 1 of the thread.

 

[MissChief]

@Uvo no codes for new members. One hundred posts or six months membership.

 

[MissChief]

Hi @MissChief, thanks for getting back to me. was worried email had got lost in spam
Although not sure about the new member comment :\ sure i've been here a lot longer than 6 months

Nothing showed up in search history as I now search if I don't recognise the name, I guess you really don't post very often! I don't have any codes for the last offer but I can get one.
