Seems that my current deal has just expired.

Whats the chance of me getting all channels, box sets, multi room q and movies (no sport) for around £45 again?

Pretty good chance for £46 if you phone up on a Friday.

Will do. Why Friday if you don't mind me asking?

Does the entertainment package include access to VOD on Nat Geo, Discovery etc?

Also, is HD £5 extra on top so £16 a month in total?

Yes, and Yes.

Sky business weeks start on Fridays, and all cancellations advisors get two codes that generate a specific set of good offers on a Friday. These offers would definitely bring the package you described at £46. It's likely the offers will populate by default in your account since you're coming off a deep offer anyway, but a Friday improves your chances.

Thanks for the info. Will call Friday.

Should I start by saying I'll cancel?

Well yes, you need to speak to the cancellations department for these offers. Do insist on it, but I would guess you'll get this price without too much hassle as again, it's likely the offers will be there for you (Entertainment at £20, 3 add-ons for £1 each, Cinema for £10 and QEXP/QMS for £13).

In terms of the install, the previous owner had Sky but we've changed the lounge around so would need a new cable running.

Would Sky cover that with the standard install?

It's a new installation if you get Sky Q, so yes.

The new price increases are a kick in the teeth to loyal customers. My bill is going up by £9 on April 1st to £114 (just as a couple of minor offers end too as I always seem to be at the upper end of the price scale).

I don't even have a call package or sports, Q Multiroom (VIP offer) with Entertainment, Ultimate Boxset, Kids, HD and Movies plus landline and Fibre Pro.

What is a reasonable price for that lot if I ring up? I tried to look online but the website is playing up, maybe due to some offers expiring today.

Edit: Looks like I am stuck until any decent existing customer inclusive offers turn up as I am still in contract on the core Entertainment element. On the plus side it looks like my line finally recognises Fibre Max as an option, so any offers with that will be an easy switch. I will cancel Movies before the current offer is up in a month or so.

Hello, not sure if this is OK but the mother in law is in the market for Basic TV and fast broadband, she's currently paying ~£44 for BT BBand only...anything around that price point you Sky folk can do / recommend? I've had Sky Q and have recommended it to her...
Cheers

@superdumper is better placed than I am for those kind of discussions.

It's a hypothetical question, as offers on accounts differ. I'd suggest you give Sky a call to see what they can do.

✔ Sky Entertainment: Over 300 channels including Sky Atlantic £11pm. Perfect for adding on the £10pm Sky Sports F1 channel or even just for the ability to record, pause and rewind.

@MissChief & @superdumper is this with a Q box, and does it have Box Sets too?

Well you need equipment when you sign up for the first time, so it will be a new Q box, yes. The particular offer does not include Box Sets, you can add them separately.
