How much do Sky charge businesses?

RangeR

I've trawled the Sky website and I don't see anywhere for businesses to even get an idea of how much they charge. I know there is probably no one size fits all pricing from Sky but I'd just like to get an idea with ringing them,spending an hour on the phone while they try to upsell me.

I'm looking to setup a business and just want to get a ROUGH idea of costs. So if there is any business owner out there, in the leisure industry, how much do you pay for base or ultimate?

Are we talking hundreds / thousands / tens of thousands a month/year?

Mods : Apologies if this is not the place to ask. I couldn't think of anywhere else.

I think the contact details are in here ,

It depends what the nature of the business is on pricing

AFAIK it depends on the trading licence of the premises. "Normal" pubs pay about 500-600 a month.

Thanks. That's what I need. Just a ballpark figure.

I have attached a general contract pricing guide that I received from them for a medical facility I was doing work for .

Is it any wonder that pubs use foreign sub cards for sport?

Jagle

is it any wonder pubs have to charge higher prices on drinks to cover these costs

5 months have passed since that recommendation and we still havent seen any ruling .
A ruling was expected within 2-3 months but the dark forces of Uncle Rupert may be working behind the scenes to delay or reverse the decision.
