Sky price increase

[Pablo1956X]

Hi. I have a standard basic package at £26 per month. It has just gone up to £36.65. Thats over a 70% increase. That can't be right.

A discounted deal could have ended in addition to the annual price increase. You would have been told the date the discounted deal was ending when you originally took it out. If you haven’t already you should compare a previous bill to your latest bill and see where the amounts differ.
If your discount has ended you will need to contact Sky to try to negotiate a new deal which will require another minimum term contract. Sky are not obliged to offer you another discount but if you’re offered something acceptable you need to agree there and then because if you decide to think about it the offer may no longer be available. 

You can either call Sky or use the following link https://www.sky.com/help/articles/cancel-sky-tv#contact-leave

@Pablo1956X a 70% increase would mean your new price is closer to £44 than the £36.65 you mention(thats closer to 40% and would make sense if a deal is ending and the upco.ing price rise is added aswell).

Hi @Pablo1956X  Your last post was not deleted but moved to the appropriate forum board, where your first post is with replies to your question.

Very difficult to find out how much a basic pacage is on sky.

https://www.sky.com/deals

They only show the extras. Is there not a proper web page that shows everything?

A 'basic' subscription television package is now 'Ultimate TV' (Signature plus Netflix). 

There's also 'Essentials' which has only the free-to-air channels.

As noted in that other thread, a £10.65 increase on £26 is more like 40%

The annual price rise this year is in line with CPI at about 10% which suggests you have something else going on: typically that's the end of a discounted initial minimum contact period.

Mine is also plus netyflix but no advertisment page for this.

I don't  think Sky advertise TV Essentials. Best to give them a call.
