Sky Advice Sought

Hollybobkins

Hi Everyone,
Took out Sky years ago when the kids were small so they could watch cartoons etc. In time I took out multi-room so I could watch in another room and have the benefit of Sky+. Now the children have grown up they do not watch tv much as they live on the internet. I am paying 91 euros month and don't watch sports and the movies are not great at the moment.
If I downgrade to just tv packs and give up multi-room will I lose Sky plus which I do love. I don't have HD and am not really interested in it. What would you guys advise? Could I wrangle a deal out of them ??

If you even keep a minimum package with Sky you retain your Sky+ functions.Cancel multiroom and remove card from box to use it for FTA.
Movies and sport are the most expensive parts of a Sky package,minimum package is €23 per month.Work out what packs you want to keep e.g Variety,Knowledge and downgrade to them.

You wont will lose the SKY+ option. You shouldlook at UPC for both TV and Broadband. I would imagine you pay around €40p/m for your broadband service plus your €91 for sky. If you combine both of those with UPC TV/BB you will save yourself a few €€€€ and you can also get Plus option of recording.

I don't work for UPC but its an option you should consider.

I rang UPC this morning and they do not offer broadband in my area and are unlikely to do so. Thanks for the advise.

Yes you have confirmed what I was thinking myself. I am going to do that the money is better in my pocket than wasting it by giving it to sky. We can torrent anything else.
