Sky TV Packages.
« on: February 23, 2011, 01:17:52 pm »
Just got rid of some we no longer use, kids packages etc & along with the rip off £10.25 hd subscription & saved a huge £183.00 a year. :happy2:
Worth having a look if you have things that you are no longer bothered about.

We have the full lot, multi-room, HD, 3D blah blah.


Only watch certain channels from each section and its costing around £70 a month I think. Crazy money to watch TV.

I threatened to cancel, they dropped the price from £50.75 to £30.25, for the Sky+ HD World pack. Didnt have to lose any channels!!  :happy2:

I disconnected completely. They keep putting their prices up every year!
Already had virgin phone and broadband, so added the TV. The SD picture looks better, and i get more channels for less money as part of my package. On top of that, all you pay is a single £50 activation fee for HD, and thats it - no monthly charges for HD whatsoever, just the one off setup fee!
Menu system takes a day or two t get used to, but I like the TV on demand features as well.

I have to say I've always been unimpressed with the SD quality through the HD box.  I go round to other peoples houses and their picture is a lot sharper through freeview.  Some channels like ITV / most of the music channels can be particularly bad.  The HD is obviously a lot sharper but then I turn on my PS3 and its another level of clarity again.
