I disconnected sky, after being on my second 75% off deal, and it went off 3 weeks ago. Sky haven't called back (they called 2 weeks before disconnection offering 50% off and £50 credit which I refused).
Logging in to my account shows a 50% off tv if I go back. How much longer will it be before I get a call with a better offer? The last two times i have done this i have had a call back within 2 weeks.

What are you seriously expecting to be offered? Another 75% off deal, why not hold out for it totally free?
In response to 'something for nothing' - this is kind of true. However, haggling is now key with many things (car insurance etc). No one should be willing to pay the full price for services as customer retention is key for companies. I am not willing to pay £80+ per month, but will pay around £30.
I agree about haggling but 50% off for 12 month seems is a good deal on the back of the two 75% discount for a year that you have enjoyed
What packages do you take from Sky
My bill was £30 per month.
It's always a good idea to haggle. I save on the original offer every time I renew car and home insurance.
I'd prefer to trust that the renewal price is the best available offer but that would be naive.
However fair play. The post is aiming at £30pm. Good luck if this is achieved
Make sure that you have given Sky permission to contact you with regard to marketing as this also covers permission to contact you with offers.
I had ticked somewhere that I did not want to receive this and therefore did not get calls when I canceled some years back.
Having realised my error I contacted Sky to change my settings ( you can do this online somewhere now ) and sure enough I started to receive mail shots and phone calls to come back.
I have just finished two years of 75% off - had movies, sports, HD to two TVs paying £32 a month in the end. I cancelleled and have since been offered 50% off but am holding out.
It's up to the individual if you happy to live without Sky but would have it at a price then why not haggle ?

To each their own
.................the opposite of pure apathy
Why don't you want the best good deal ?
so today on the Chat help i was offered 25%, which i said was tempting but not enough to get me back, so then got 40%, for 12 months which was enough
moral if you don't ask you don't get
We had 2013 free, 75% off before then, 50% off before then, 2014 it went back to 50% off.
Offer ended in September, 2 minute call, "hi, my offer is ending". "I can renew your 50% off". Job done.
Why anyone pays full price when it is so easy to get discount is baffling.
Companies you deal with must love you.
Only a fool will pay full price for services like TV and telecoms before trying to negotiate a deal. I have been on a discounted price with Sky for as long as I can recall. They didn't give me anything when my deal ended last Autumn so I left. Had a 50% offer in the post 2 weeks later.
I presume Daniel_Jones was talking about not accepting the 50% offer, not being greedy about asking for an offer.
Not so sure about that ... the VAST majority pay full price ... those showing they are willing to cancel and do without deserve a discount.
I had an offer in the post within 2 weeks.
I dropped my package 2 weeks ago to save money, down to Original from Family with Sport, so there's another 2 weeks to go before anything actually changes, and so far I have received 2 offers via email.
