My contract ends 12 December, handed my notice.
Offered 40% off off tv by phone, app offered 50%. Took it for 1 year contract. But switching broadband and phone to BT infinity (sky weren't doing any broadband deals), as I like BT sport too. |

Having switched broadband and it goes across in a few days, I then terminated the Sky tv as well and it ends in early Nov. I have the 50% offer showing buts its only for 10 months so I will probably leave it.
I have just started a trial with Now TV. Is there anything you can't get on Now TV that you can on Sky? I don't want the Sports or Movies. |

...don't bet on it - I cancelled in Sept. with a switch off date of 28th October. Best offer so far (via app.) has been 50% for 12 months but a phone call yesterday suggested best that they could do ,was 50% for 10 months. I pressed for more but all I got offered extra, was no min. contract term ,so could cancel again next July -asked for full 12 months -no ---asked for account credit no longer available!!

All you have to do is pay £10 a month to keep them or it's free if you have Sky Broadband or phone already. I reckon you will get the 60% offer once your service ends. I had the offer a few days after my TV service was terminated. Did you speak to them via Live Chat? online? Tell them you have a 60% offer and they may accept it.

If so, then you would need to take out a multiscreen subscription. The free recording facility is for those with Broadband, but no Sky TV package. |

I wonder if Sky will also update their general rejoin offer soon to reflect the new Sky Q entry point. I currently have 60% of everything available, but I guess this requires using my existing box.
Has anyone tried phoning to get the offer, but then saying you no longer have the original box. I wonder if they'd offer the Sky Q with the 60% also. Greed, I know! |

As you say second box, I presume you have a Sky TV subscription on your first box, as you don't make that clear?
If so, then you would need to take out a multiscreen subscription. The free recording facility is for those with Broadband, but no Sky TV package. Effectively a freeview recordable box |

If you rejoin Sky with your old equipment, and then choose to upgrade to Sky Q, your 60% discount now carries forward I believe. Not that I think it should, but from what I'm told it does.
It seems a no brainer that you'd pay for the Q Multiroom as it covers the £12 cost over 12 month of the £199 fee! I suspect this will also be the case, perhaps, if you rejoin and upgrade as you suggest as a returning customer? |

Well my SKYQ deal fell through, no fault of SKY my landlord refused the upgrade to the system, SKY gave me another deal instead the top package including skygo extra for £36p/m this includes sports and movies i'm quite happy with that, they coming out Monday to install a SKY+HD box for me.

I was just looking with a friend at their existing active account. In the fine print to Upgrade to Sky Q then existing customers need to pay £199 setup fee to upgrade, unless they are also upgrading to Q Multiroom, in which case it's £12 a month more plus a reduced install fee of £30.

You don't need to pay £199 set up fee anymore. It's £30 installation fee per box now for existing customers to upgrade to Sky Q and £10 for new customers.

I have just done my 31 day cancellation so does that mean because I have the broadband and phone that I will get recordings and pause rewind for free on my main box.?

I was going by the Sky t&c's as follows. Note existing customers. The final bit says it's £199 if you don't take multiscreen. Obviously some people have got this cheaper then.
Installation: Engineer set-up required. Standard installation: New Sky TV customers: Sky Q 1TB box: £15 with or without a Sky Q Multiscreen subscription; Sky Q 2TB box with a Sky Q Multiscreen subscription: £60; Sky Q 2TB box without a Sky Q Multiscreen subscription: £199. Existing customers taking a Sky Q Multiscreen subscription: Sky Q 1TB box: up to £49; Sky Q 2TB box: up to £99. Prices discounted to £15 for Sky Q 1TB box or £60 for Sky Q 2TB for existing customers without a current Sky+ Multiscreen subscription. Existing Sky+ customers wishing to upgrade to Sky Q 1TB box or Sky Q 2TB box without taking a Sky Q Multiscreen subscription: £199 standard set-up, |
