Sadly I only have deals for new customers. Some of the posts in the other forum about sky deals may give you an idea though.

Is there any possibility of a new customer sign up deal please @MissChief

@Greggers224 as a new sign up I'm unable to send you a code. Forum rules!

No 'driveby' code requests will be honoured. You must have a minimum 100 posts and 6 month membership of the forums to request a code.

@Greggers224 I can't send you a code due to the above rule.

@Cowboy123 the above also applies to you. No drive by code requests will be honoured.

Just a question - what’s the probability of getting a second minibox at a reduced rate? Currently using one and pay for q experience but so far can’t get them to budge on the £90 fee even for a self install ?

Self-installs through TV retentions are usually at £69. Beyond that, you just have to keep trying and checking in with them to see if there are any other offers. Eventually there may be something else too.

Bear in mind you need a 2TB box for 2 miniboxes together at the same time.

@MissChief
Hey, currently with Virgin Media but price has rocketed from 75 a month to 114, I am currently living with my parents and I am paying for the Virgin. I am just about to move out and get my own place so my parents will be looking to get something to replace the VM.

Any deals on at the minute? they were sky customers a few years back but then when i moved back home after uni i got Virgin Media. Only real need is for the sports channels in HD. Not fussed about Cinema etc if that makes any difference to price.

Thanks

Thanks, is it possible to add BT Sports HD to any of those packages also? and at what cost. Cheers

At the moment only directly with BT but BT sport will be retailed by Sky as well early next year. When or at what price I have no idea.

Hi @MissChief , would you be able to tell me what the current deal is for new customers wanting the entertainment package only? Just wanting to weigh up if I am better going this route of the Now TV route, although I note the latter only seems to be 720p. Thanks

Sadly there's no entertainment only deal through me at the moment but you should be able to get it for £15 if you push hard or approach a retail stand. That's basic entertainment though, no HD, Kids or Box Sets.

One more thing on this, a couple of weeks ago I heard BT Sport through Sky is launching in June, with the new season. The original deal was for January.
