Just had an update to the My Sky App and a new feature is the Sky VIP section. Simply join it and receive £13.99 credit for the Sky Store! (buy and keep movie)
Looks like it may be selected customers at the mo...Will see if I can find anymore info out...
If you don't get your email, try the code GIFT
Just to confirm..Its not showing a credit as such but all £13.99 films are showing as £0.00

Updated my Andriod app and got the offer to join VIP, I'm a Black Tier apparently as I've been with Sky 15+ years but I doubt I will get any exciting offers! Free film is worth joining up for though and I've just had the code through - code to use on Sky Store was GIFT so might be worth people trying this code to see if it works even if they haven't had the option to join as a VIP!

I've had no email but saw this post and was able to sign up on the MySky app, not had a code emailed either but the GIFT one works great...thanks

Why does there have to be a catch? It's just a free film for a selected number of customers to try and promote their new loyalty reward scheme. The catch will probably be you get excited thinking you will achieve a reward from staying with Sky when actually they give new customer better deals and discounts :wink:

only released to 300k customers atm will eventually roll out to every one but only a select few at the moment. until you see the join VIP on the app the code GIFT will not work.

i was just saying that i doubt this is given depending on how long you've been with sky! as was previously said it's being rolled out to 300k customers but obviously my account isn't one of those yet! get off your high horse idiot!!

I'm beginning to think this is a con. I logged into my app, it said join VIP and get £13.99 credit etc. I've joined VIP, had no email with any code, and app says my rewards will be ready in the summer? :disappointed:

25 May 17#21
Try going to the sky store and entering GIFT
mattclarkie
25 May 17#22
There's no indication after entering the code and then going to browse for monies that you have the a credit in your account oO
Manc1180
25 May 17#23
I'm already on it! It's worked but says account credit £0.00
OneGloveOnTheFence
25 May 17#24
buy a movie and it'll say £0.00
I did mention it in comment #34, should have added to OP...sorry!

Visit skystore.com and redeem voucher. Enter GIFT. When checking out a purchase it will credit £13.99. Only if you agree to VIP T and C via Sky Service App. Good Luck!

Heat OP! Over 15 years subscription, so a Black VIP member :sunglasses:
This was handy actually, reminded me to use the £13.99 I had as credit from last reward they gave me... just got Trainspotting 2, with the new credit still to use. Anyone know how long it lasts?

if you use the £13.99 credit for a £7.99 film does the £6 still show for other purchases?

I think they're rolling out to the 3-8year customers first (gold)

Usually you can, but not too sure with this as it doesn't show in the "credit" balance.
Anyone else tried?

Been with them for about 14 months, got an email today. My parents have been with them for 9 years or so and also got an email. I needed to update the app for the VIP button to appear

Possibly, I think it looks more like a roll out phase to customers than a specific app version. Still, heat added of course, I'll keep checking.

25 May 17#73
Cunning move. VIP status is based on duration of contract and monthly cost. The more, the higher It's a nice gift, but you'll earn more by negotiating your contract (best way being to actual leave and wait for the nice offer in the post during your 30days notice period)!
NeilB
25 May 17#74
Yeah, maybe when you try to negotiate a better deal at the end of your contract (like the 50% and 75% off deals) they'll say sorry, these arent available to VIP customers :grin:

i just googled Sky VIP, looks like the start of a loyalty scheme. looks like they are adding people in phases.
