I know this deal has been on HUKD before - because I've already took the deal out myself, but if I remember correctly the post specified it was expiring 25th July.
However after searching around for a family member, I've discovered this deal is still live!
For £16.40 a month you get the following;
- Sky Family Bundle (roughly 450 channels, box sets etc)
- Unlimited Broadband
- Free Weekend calls
- Line rental
Was an great deal then and still is now, it's on a 12 month contract, for 'new' sky customers.
*** Note this deal can be even cheaper, if you're persistent on the phone to the sky call centres you can get an additional £100 refer a freind bonus ***
Was found PC World Sunderland after calling up (In-store deal), but assume it's national as its provided through partnership with simplify digital.
Ps to any admin, had to pick a random end date (mobile user) for the deal, however not actually aware of when this deal is on till, seems like forever ahaha.

I've just rang Bolton carphoneware house (this offer applies in all stores apparently) and they have just told me that this offer is now unavailable. However they do offer the same bundle at £26.40pm + one off £6.95 router equipment, no installation fee. Sky customer service couldn't better this and offered me it for £39.90 plus £10 installation fee + router cost of £6.95.
phil001 to Luvsabargin
22 Oct 15#201
Highly likely that sky will add a £10 installation fee even when ordered through CPW as I found out

21 Oct 15#199
the option to cancel is clearly there if he so chooses.regarding line rental and broadband anyway.
bellamy_47
21 Oct 15#198
Cancelling part of the package, I know the line rental increase breaks the contract. Maybe a better idea is to try to get them to agree to a rolling 1 month contract? in the hope of prolonging the offer?
n1ttygr1tty
21 Oct 15#197
what wouldn't work? if you mean they cant leave due to price increase, of course they can, they have 30 days from when receive the letter from sky, (this does not apply to tv tho) as theres no price rise there
bellamy_47
21 Oct 15#196
It was made very plain to me, there's an extra months charge basically for the equipment, delivery & installation. CPW at fault there if nobody told you.
phil001
21 Oct 15#195
Yes it is and I would have been happy to pay that if I was told at the point of sale
bellamy_47
21 Oct 15#194
I don't think that would work, it's line rental you are paying so sky would be due nothing more from you.

I think a tenner is reasonable for 2 workmens time, a dish, lnb and cabling and a sky+HD box
phil001
21 Oct 15#192
Yep, im happy with that but even taking that into account the bill was £10 higher than it should have been.
Eventually got them to credit me the £10, took ages as they insist CPW should have advised of a £10 install/activation charge, even though i have emails from them stating free.
Anyway all sorted now :smiley:
n1ttygr1tty
21 Oct 15#191
the extra £6.40 would be the router post and packaging cost I would think
phil001
13 Oct 15#186
When i took this i had to pay £10 'deposit' at carphne warehouse and was told this would be taken off my first bill.
Cant work out my 1st bill, it does show the £10 being deducted but the bill is still for about £24 (£16.40 + £6.40 + a days line renal or something)
Plus be aware line rental is £17.40 from Dec, not too happy they are telling me of a price increase within a day of my TV install though!
bellamy_47 to phil001
13 Oct 15#187
The first bill is what you've used so far, and 1 full month in advance.
n1ttygr1tty to phil001
21 Oct 15#190
you can of course leave sky broadband and line rental penalty free, once you receive your price notifaction letter..
so in theory you could sign up elsewhere for broadband and line rental and just keep your tv (as your tv prices are not effected

I just walked into Carphone Wearhouse and asked about what Sky offers they have on and was offered this deal. Thanks as I wouldn't have known about it if I hadn't seen it on here :-)

Is this deal still going? I thought it expired on Wednesday.
himynameisemma to himynameisemma
20 Oct 15#189
Such a shame as far as i can see (or the staff in my local Carphone Wearhouse) for absolutely no good reason Sky have decided to reject my sign up request. The reason I was signing up in the 1st place was because my ex husband had moved out and cancelled the existing contract as it was in his name and as i still wanted Sky I wanted to sign up for my own contract, nothing unusual there u would think...? But no Sky obviously don't want my money and so refused me and to make matters worse after waiting nearly a month and not hearing anything I had to chase them to find all this out!!
Needless to say this offer is no longer available anyway so I couldn't get it if I tried again :-(
phil001
13 Oct 15#188
Yep, as listed above.
They have added an extra £10 in somewhere, i have just called and they are going to crediti it to my account.
Live chat were useless!
Just watch your bills if you have gone for this!

Just had Virgin call me, they basically said there's no way Sky could offer this.
He said he'd had loads of people trying to come back to Virgin because it ends up costing more than expected.
Then he offered 50meg only at £16.99 which i would have accepted if they had offered it to me on the other calls i'd made to them

This deal is still available (not the £100credit though as far as I know)
Again, I was told its ending tomorrow, sky keep moving the end date apparently

Yes added FIBRE post CPW order , CPW had given Fibre @ 25 GB cap. Gor unlimited with a few attempts on Sky chat , managed to convince them to get Fibre @ 10 £ per month and 100 £ bill credit so net-net 20 £ / year additional.

29 Sep 151#173
Ordered at CPW , Reading 3 weeks ago...All set-up now ...plus negotiated unlimited FIBRE with SKY at 20 £ / Year additional...So at 18 £ / month got SKY Fibre unlimited BB, SKY Family package and line rental (pay as you talk)...Not bad :-)

Went into a CPW today, they said this was £17.50 and the deal ends tomorrow.
Not sure how true it is, but considering it if I think I can cope with the speed drop from virgin - the best they can do on broadband only is £23...

Just got this deal from CPW inside PCW Reading. Did not include weekend calls but as both weekend calls package and also evening and weekend calls package were both £4 I opted for the latter.

Excellent deal.. Placed an order with Sky last week for BB Unlimited for 16.40 a month but got this deal in CPW today and called up sky to cancel the order.

I don't I'm afraid, the second time when ringing for my mum he stated that it couldn't be done and I said he better have a word with someone that could then because it's a valid offer.. He spoke to his manager and said that it wasn't a problem. Sorry I can't be any more help.

hi
i went into pc world and carphone warehouse for this deal. the free weekend calls are not included in the pc world deal and at carphone warehouse it was an additional £4 (as mentioned by other posters). however, neither of them could tell me where in the deal i would get, or they could give me £100 voucher or credit.
as the tv wasn't something i particularly needed. i went with broadband deal. so on skys website, the broadband is free (adsl not fibre) only line rental, £16.4 per month. they're also offering £100 reward. plus going through quidco gives an additional £55.
so i work it as 16.4 x 12 months = £196.80 year
£196.80- £155 reward & quidco = £41.8 year
£41.8/12months = £3.48 per month.
i thought this worked out quite sweet.
if anyone could tell me how they got the £100 deal with the tv package included, id really appreciate it. otherwise i hope this helps for anyone who is just after a broadband deal

hi, i think opaninkofi said it all, i think if you don't have a line already, there is an activation charge. the £100 option comes up once you're on your way through the checkout process. it gives a few options, £100 prepaid master card, tesco, m&s or a samsung tab 4. i went with master card.

Yes you need a landline, you pay the line rental for the landline (which is £16.40) and then and you enjoy free unlimited standard broadband. If you do not have a landline, they will connect you for extra £20 I think. Bow is the deal from sky SKY BROADBAND ONLY DEAL. Instead of the the TV, you get free £100 voucher or prepaid mastercard

we were told that on demand is not included and that calls also are not included. think it was £16 for activation and p+p for the equipment. signed up anyway, as it includes installation (we don't have a satellite dish) and we can always use the dish on other services after 12 months.

On- demand is definitely included, all it is is Iplayer etc. likewise weekend calls is also definitely included.

Went to pc world this afternoon. fiber is 10 quid extra but has 25gb limit which could be a problem if streaming tv. The unlimited fibre is £30.30. I didn't sign as the TV package seemed basic offering but the guy I spoke to said he gets unlimited fibre and phone for £21 and he got that online so I'm going to look around.
jackfreemanwkd to BeerGoggles
6 Sep 15#101
Get the offer, then once set up ring sky to upgrade to fibre (a few people have mentioned its £10 extra a month. If this was the case your monthly bill would be £26.40 for all of the above plus fibre. Better than only fibre and phone in my eyes personally.

£30.00 less 60% = £12.00. WIth the £100 credit, already shows on my account as 2 x £50.00 credits. I have worked out for 12 months it will cost £3.66 month, or if I cancel in month 7 for 8 months in total (30 cancellation agreement) then it is free. I guess I could have paid more for the family bundle but don't really need the other channels. All done over chat so don't have anyone who keeps on for hours trying to get extra from you. It took around 10 mins in total Colin

Sorry for being overly cautious but do you just go in and ask for the sky half price family bundle package at PC World(i.e. do you need to use the voucher code above)? I will need Fibre so do I upgrade then and there or do you have to contact sky after activation?

I assume your daughter is an active Sky subscriber? I'm not sure why she would be charged £10 a month as an active subscriber for the service as this is a charge for non subscribers, are you sure you're not confusing the HD fee?

Yes sorry missed your comment with the link. Have now had a quick look. However, my daughter has it showing as £10 on her account breakdown and this has only just been set up. She is only paying a total of £16.40 pm which is broken down as £6.40 line rental, free broadband and £10 sky+ limited.

All this TV/Internet/Phone business is getting so out of hand pricewise. So many SO CALLED OFFERS by all the providers sometimes make all the Supermarkets look tame.
Just imagine how hard BT is going to hit all of EE/Orange customers soon.
The British public are getting taken for a ride yet this country is supposed to have next to no inflation. Probably NON in the houses of parliament or the houses of parliamentarians with their HUGE expense and pay increases that normal people NEVER GET. Politicians have NO IDEA of what goes on in the real world and don't seem to have any interest either unless their seat and expense account is at stake

So, I previously had Sky and Sky Multiroom. The main box went, then my missus signed up and got the 12 months half price deal from refer a friend.
The multiform box still works fine upstairs as a freeview, but has no pause, rewind or record functions.
Guessing if I stuck the main box card in the upstairs box (former multiform, but still a Sky plus box) it should work judging by this then?

Hi as I was at the end of my contract I asked them to cancel everything as they couldn't give me a decent renewal. After long chats they offered me line rental, broadband and limited use of sky+ box for £16.40 which I took. It was use of the box that swayed me to stay as my aerial reception is awful. Anyway I received a call from them and agreed to take tv after they said £24.40 pm and the offer of £50 account credit. It has been applied. He said it's to June 2016 (not a 12 month contract) for the tv but just said it was on a 31 day cancellation at any time. He said I could give cancellation notice at any time and still keep £50 - so even if I had given 31 days notice the next day. I'm writing 31 days but now questioning myself as to whether it's 30 day notice. My account would then go back to £16.40 pm until August 2016.

My daughter was on the same original deal as me but hasn't been able to get the deal I negotiated. She's now got line rental, broadband, weekend calls and sky+ box limited functions for £16.40 pm. It's so hit and miss with Sky. However if I can find the details she might be able to take up the offer.

Great deal! We've just cancelled after 12 months of this and it's been spot on.
I have a question for anyone in the know... Ours runs out at the end of the month and currently in the GF's name. We moved into our new house a year ago but I had a similar deal through Sky for the previous year at our old house, in my name.
I want to take this deal as a new customer but my last day as a Sky customer was around 4th-5th of October last year.
Can I book in advance for installation after that date this year and still qualify as a new customer?

I got this deal last September so finishing now. I have negotiated keeping the package for £24.40 per month and they have given me a £50 credit. The tv part finishes next June, although I can cancel anytime with 31 days notice, and the landline, calls, and broadband finishes August. The different dates are because it was set up on two different calls. I think this means I am paying under £20 per month (taking into consideration the credit) for the package until June next year.
BuzzDuraband to 2bhappy
4 Sep 152#10
I've literally just got a letter from them today. I cancelled my Sky back in June. Now that the Sky+ recording function is fully available to people without an existing subscription the box and free channels are more than adequate for myself, what with all the other subscriptions I take (Netflix, Amazon Prime and so on).
Anyway, the letter offered me the Family Bundle for £14.40 a month with £100 credit to the account (just under 7 months free).
Maybe try to negotiate that £50 to £100 given that they actually have a webpage dedicated to the credit?

I appreciate its for them to recuperate lost subscribers, but may be some good ammunition for you :smiley:

Opening post
However after searching around for a family member, I've discovered this deal is still live!
For £16.40 a month you get the following;
- Sky Family Bundle (roughly 450 channels, box sets etc)
- Unlimited Broadband
- Free Weekend calls
- Line rental
Was an great deal then and still is now, it's on a 12 month contract, for 'new' sky customers.
*** Note this deal can be even cheaper, if you're persistent on the phone to the sky call centres you can get an additional £100 refer a freind bonus ***
Was found PC World Sunderland after calling up (In-store deal), but assume it's national as its provided through partnership with simplify digital.
Ps to any admin, had to pick a random end date (mobile user) for the deal, however not actually aware of when this deal is on till, seems like forever ahaha.

What offers have people had after the year?
I assume nothing like the original deal!
Eventually got them to credit me the £10, took ages as they insist CPW should have advised of a £10 install/activation charge, even though i have emails from them stating free.
Anyway all sorted now :smiley:
Cant work out my 1st bill, it does show the £10 being deducted but the bill is still for about £24 (£16.40 + £6.40 + a days line renal or something)
Plus be aware line rental is £17.40 from Dec, not too happy they are telling me of a price increase within a day of my TV install though!
so in theory you could sign up elsewhere for broadband and line rental and just keep your tv (as your tv prices are not effected
Needless to say this offer is no longer available anyway so I couldn't get it if I tried again :-(
They have added an extra £10 in somewhere, i have just called and they are going to crediti it to my account.
Live chat were useless!
Just watch your bills if you have gone for this!
He said he'd had loads of people trying to come back to Virgin because it ends up costing more than expected.
Then he offered 50meg only at £16.99 which i would have accepted if they had offered it to me on the other calls i'd made to them
Again, I was told its ending tomorrow, sky keep moving the end date apparently
Thanks
thanks
Did you just call them ?
thanks
is it the CPW desks within pc world stores?
Not sure how true it is, but considering it if I think I can cope with the speed drop from virgin - the best they can do on broadband only is £23...
I need to get on this.. leaving Virgin (although will miss their internet speeds)!

Thanks for info
Contact Sky TV. Any suggestions??
-£16.40 for tel line rental (no weekend calls)
-Free BB
-Free Family bundle TV
i went via internet. go through quidco to skys website.
evening and weekend calls is £4 extra p/m
anytime calls are £8 extra p/m
i went into pc world and carphone warehouse for this deal. the free weekend calls are not included in the pc world deal and at carphone warehouse it was an additional £4 (as mentioned by other posters). however, neither of them could tell me where in the deal i would get, or they could give me £100 voucher or credit.
as the tv wasn't something i particularly needed. i went with broadband deal. so on skys website, the broadband is free (adsl not fibre) only line rental, £16.4 per month. they're also offering £100 reward. plus going through quidco gives an additional £55.
so i work it as 16.4 x 12 months = £196.80 year
£196.80- £155 reward & quidco = £41.8 year
£41.8/12months = £3.48 per month.
i thought this worked out quite sweet.
if anyone could tell me how they got the £100 deal with the tv package included, id really appreciate it. otherwise i hope this helps for anyone who is just after a broadband deal
Many thanks :smiley:
How do you get the £100 offer if you go into carphonewarehouse?
Can you please clarify how to get that £100 award to make it even cheaper? No effort so far has resulted into any luck.
Also:
If you go for the sky fibre its not unlimited useage.
There's an additional £10 payment to set it up
plus £6.50ish (can't remember exactly how much) p&p costs to get the router
You can't
The fees are a £10 activation charge and £6.95 router delivery.
Got until september 28 , 2015 to signup.
Is the £ 100 reward on top of the 16.40 deal ? fantastic if it is !
it would be £4 extra for those.
