Re: Rising subscription prices
Sky are unlikely to match a new customer offer from Virgin.
Of course, give Sky a call to see what discounts they can offer.

Re: Rising subscription prices
@Lazzoon
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 seem 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 on a par 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.

Re: Rising subscription prices
Totally agree. Also 27 years and no concession for loyalty. Cheaper options now available despite hassle of moving . Alternative providers have to be considered .
