    Only a fairly small number get free Sky, but they do get discounts.

    I think that's incorrect!

    It has been said previously (from those concerned?) that ALL Sky Employees (I presume not agency?) get free subscriptions - and half price SBO.

    I've never spoken to a normal Sky employee yet who gets free Sky - I don't think even the reps do?.

    From the sky website:

    Free Sky+, Broadband and discounted Talk for all our people – Sky+ is a fantastic product for our customers and we want you to enjoy it too, for free! There’s also free broadband, discounted Sky Talk and great discounts on Sky+HD.

    Guess you don't speak to the correct employees.

    The official staff subscription scheme is available to any sky employee on a permanent contract and employed directly by Sky. I know this applies to telesales agents in the Scottish call centres. Temporary contracts and outsourced agents do not get this.

    They get free Sky tv on as many boxes as they have, free HD mix, Free line rental and Skytalk unlimited call package and broadband Max. All they pay for is Box office at a reduced rate and their chargeable phone calls.

    As bubblegun says - more or less free everything with the exception of:

    HD box £49 - HD mix free.

    Box office moves half price.

    Incidentally, all box office events are also free.

    You're allowed as many boxes as can be connected to a single dish and all the multiroom subs are free.

    Sorry, I thought I'd read that line rental was being added to the scheme a few months ago. Guess not, then.

    Not really a hardship though given that everything else is free.
