Bills really high

[Jacqueline1945]

My bills are extremely high. How can I reduce?

We can’t see your bills but the usual reason for a bill increase, other than the usual annual price increase in April, is that your discounts have ended.

Perhaps compare the latest bill with previous ones to see where it differs.

If your discounted minimum term has ended or its ending soon the best new discounts are still normally acquired by contacting Sky and negotiating or potentially amending your package which will require a new 24 month minimum term contract.

Significant discounts are harder to come by these days so if you’re offered something acceptable be prepared to agree to it there and then because if you decide to think about it the offer is unlikely to be available when you call back. Also remember you’re not a new Sky customer so don’t expect anything close to a new customer deal.

If you decide it’s no longer value for money and you’re thinking of changing providers remember that at the end of their minimum term you'll be in the same position with that company at which point you'll be able to return to Sky and benefit from the new customer discounts available at that particular time.

Give Sky a call to see if they will offer you a discount and if they do you will need to make you mind up while on the call and it will mean starting a new contract.

Sky keep increasing your bill. It's the price you pay for brand loyalty sadly. The best approach is to call and ask how to cancel your services. Take a look online and see what introductory prices others are offering. Sky will reduce your monthly bill to keep you on the books.

Yup, once a year like most other providers.

They might, they might not - be prepared to cancel.

"Yup" and we're not talking about other providers. Whatever other providers do is not relevant to the amount you are paying for your personalized sky subscription. 

My views are my own and I am not incentivized in anyway by Sky or any other party to post in this forum or negate the views of other users.

What other providers do is relevant in this case, as all major providers do an annual price rise, and that is something that needs to be considered when negotiating with Sky and also when looking at competitors when considering a switch. Also for negotiation purposes, what deal you can get from other providers is completely relevant. 

[Sky1011]

It is not relevant what other providers do in the context of what I said. Sky do it and that's why if you're not careful you end up with sky high bills, scuse the pun. It's not necessary to keep disagreeing!
