Hi, I was wondering if anyone who has cancelled sky stream had any contact from sky to resubscribe? Years ago when I was on sky and cancelled they were always contacting me to return.

I cancelled and went away for 3 months, there was absolutely zero contact from Sky and when I called to restart my subscription no incentives were offered for the 31 day rolling contract.

@martswain I have never been brave enough to contact Sky on the subject as knowing my luck they would just wave me goodbye and cancel my account.

Oh well it is what it is. Sky cinema is a shadow of its former self. Due to all the streaming services. Contacting sky is near impossible. So I think I'll give it a miss. After all with all the add ons like uhd & fw ads it's not exactly cheap.

If you just want to access Sky Cinema occasionally the NOW TVis a better option.

Just a quick update after my 3rd attempt trying to contact sky I finally got through. The 2nd guy I spoke to though sky ultimate was just Netflix on its own and then put me on hold. To cut a long story short. Called back spoke to I think his name was Jordan and basically as I've already subscribed to sky stream I'm getting 50% off sky ultimate for the next 9 months on the 31 day rolling contract plus hd/ultra for £4 per month and that offer last for 18 months.

I've been on the 50% off Entertainment deal on a 31 day contract for a few months already but with free UHD/Atmos and free ad-skipping. I pay the extra £8 for Netflix Premium, giving me a monthly total of £22.50. If they want to charge me any more than that come December when the 9 months is up then I'll be politely declining and the puck will be straight on eBay...
