25% off DTV with Broadband - Existing Customers (SKY)


18°

FOUND BY: sprocket 1 month, 3 weeks ago

This is a offer that is available to all current Sky subscribers with Broadband.
I have copied this directly from my Sky online bill showing this months discount.

"25% off DTV with Broadband - Existing Customers"

You just have to phone cancellations and ask for it.

I might be the only one but what is DTV? If you are a SKY sub, you already have digital TV, so it must mean something else, anyone care to advise? Thanks.

My guess is that he means if you subscribe to Sky 'digital TV' as well as their broadband, you just ring them, ask for cancellations, and when put through tell them you want the 25% off deal. However it isn't clear whether the 25% off is just the TV element, or off both the TV and Broadband costs.

However, last time Sky were rumoured to be doing this sport of thing, the posts on forum such as these were saying to ring Sky, threaten to cancel and they would throw you an offer to stay - at the time it was full Sky Movies and/or Sports for 3 months @ £5/month.

So I rang them, but didn't want to risk having my bluff called if I threatened to cancel, as had happened to some people. So I just told them, i was considering upgrading to the movies pack and wondered if they had any offers for them. the girl went away, and when she came back she said she'd checked my account and I had the offer for the Movies for £5/month for 3 months. She even told me to cancel at the end of month 3, or I'd start being charged full price.

So there may not be a need to go to cancellations, or threaten to cancel - just ask them wht they can offer you. They can only say no - then try the cancellation route!

ok,
DTV = Digital TV, basically SKY

The title is what I had on my online Sky bill, so you know exactly what to ask for. Its 25% off your month sky tv bill, so for me about £10, but I believe you need to be a broadband subscriber as well.

The offer lasts for 6 months, so the deal is save £60 in 6 months. Not bad for one cost cutting excersise on one bill.

Search on there and you should be able to find an alternative number.

Incidentally, if you have Sky Talk, calls to Sky via their 0844 numbers are free.

As said in my first post, this is the line that appears in my sky online bill this month, so yes I have already got it.

"25% off DTV with Broadband - Existing Customers"
