Yup, good way to get them to replace faulty hardware/send an engineer out for free also.
Just tell them you want to cancel, they'll get on it straight away.

| Post subject: | Sky cancellation |
Just some info to share with everyone on this fine community. I just phoned to cancel sky (to move to Virgin) and the bloke offered me free sky plus and installation (worth £100) and also to reduce the price of my package too. People with sky now might be able to get themselves some free sky plus out of this. My conversation was: Me "I want to cancel my sky services" Bloke "May I ask why that is" Me "I can get it for cheaper elsewhere and Sky Sports and all the tv channels are pretty brutal" Bloke "Could I change your mind if I offered you free sky plus with free installation?" Me "Not really" Bloke "What if I reduced the price of your TV package (Sky Sports) as well?" Me "No, i'm alright thanks" Bloke "So if i offered you your current TV package half price for six months and free sky plus with installation i couldn't get you to change your mind?" Me "No thanks" Just might help someone here get something for free/cheap if you've got the balls to do a fake cancellation. I did have phone, broadband and TV with sky mind you and my bill was £48 pm. I dont know if this affects it much. |
