Free Sky+ box

[wyrdness]

Does anyone want a free Sky+ (satellite receiver & digital video recorder) with half-price Sky subscription for 6 months? Unfortunately it's only available for people who don't currently have Sky. I work for Sky and this is a genuine offer, which expires on June 30th. Let me know if you're interested or want more information.

Is it available via website, or an offer only you can do?
I have a mate who may be interested.

I already have sky so I can't take up the offer :cry:

Any information you have would be gratefully received 8)

It's an offer that only employees can do. I give you my name and employee number, then you call Sky and give them my details when you order.

I'm not sure if there's an installation fee or a minimum contract. I didn't see any mention of either but I can check tomorrow.

It seems like a pretty good deal if you don't already have Sky.

Wyrdness - I might be interested ... :)

I don't have sky, but the people who lived here previously did, so there is a dish etc all set up... I recently inquired about subscribing to Sky (not sky+ though) and they wanted to give us a better deal if we had all new equipment instead of keeping the old stuff. :!:

Do you know if I'd need a new dish for your offer? If so - does that come with it or would I have to pay for it?

Thanks!

I'll try to find out tomorrow.

Me interested too!

What equipment does it come with? Installation? Etc etc??

[wyrdness]

I've got all of the details at work, so I'll post them tomorrow. I haven't read the small print yet. The offer is for 'friends and families' of Sky employees, so it's a better deal than you'd normally get.

I'm not a fan of Sky's customer care. You'd think they'd look after current subscribers but they don't.
Once they have your money then your on your own.



Nowt against you wyrdness, just the monopoly!

:wink:

I'm with you mate :thumbsup: they should occasionally offer longstanding customers a bit of an incentive :wink:

[tigersaw]

All you have to do (it seems) is call this special number: 08701 942095
lines open 8:30am - 11pm, it's called their "new best friend" offer on the letter.


Not just for friends of sky staff, they are mailing lots of sky subscribers.

I agree with the naff service that Sky offers.
I have been a customer for about the last 10 years. We currently have a problem with Sky+ where when you record something, it sticks and jumps when you play it back (seems to happen more on Channel 4). Can I get any joy from Sky, NO!! Apart from their usual turn it off/back on again, all they are looking for is for me to pay £60 to get it fixed by them. It's a joke when we spend the best part of £50 each month on it anyway.

I work for NTHell - So definitley count me in for your Sky offer!

I'll take one PM me!

Can you do anything to get the price of HD down? :lol:

PM'd. You'll just have to wait (probably a long time) for cheaper HD. Or get a job here. Employees can get it cheaper, but we have to wait until customers have got theirs.

My other half may be *very* interested in this!

Gotta say I've had Sky and NTL in the past and Sky wins everytime. Unfortunately I live in a listed buildingy thing at the moment and can't have a dish so have to put up with NTL.
Sky CC is far better than NTL CC, but isn't almost all CC really poor?

[rictus01]

I've just done it, saved nearly £150,now that can't be bad. :thumbsup:

little man in his van be round Tuesday.

Cheers Mark.
