Sky+ to reduce to £49
As posted on another forum, no official confirmation yet, just verbal, but Sky are expected to drop the price of the Sky+ unit down to £49 today for new customers. This is only weeks after raising the price to £149.
The £49 for the unit excludes the compulsory £30 installation cost, but is a good option for those wanting Sky+ facilities.

Re: Sky+ to reduce to £49
Has anyone heard anything else about this?
Missed out on the free Sky+ refferal offer due to BT taking three months to install my line. Would definitely purchase at this price.

Would be good news if this was for existing customers as well!
£149 + £30 set-up for a stand alone sky+ box is just daylight robbery

Re: Sky+ to reduce to £49
I just had a new box installed for £49. New customer. Signed up direct with sky at a local shopping mall. Couldnt use quidco because of the recent price increase.
Pity the monkey they sent around to install it drilled through a central heating pipe causing a couple of hundreds quid worth of damage, ruined the lamitate flooring and didnt tidy up after himself!
Oh, and the viewing card doesnt work so I have to wait for a new one.

Re: Sky+ to reduce to £49
If you contact Sky now they should be aware of it, although it might take a little while to filter through their system. Deal is on, new customers only from what i've been told sorry.

Re: Sky+ to reduce to £49
Just rang Sky, quoted me £99 for Sky+ box and £30 install. Would not budge. Is there a promotion code for this £49 offer or even better the free box and install package that I can quote?
Cheers
Mark

Re: Sky+ to reduce to £49
No, its just the new deal but might not have got through to the Sky reps yet. The free deal with only apply in the digital switch over areas.

Re: Sky+ to reduce to £49
At present it appears its only applicable through an ASA, however, Sky usually take up the same offer soon after to compete with their own agents!
