Title says it all really. It's been mentioned before but this really does work.
If you ring up Sky Customer Services and say you want to cancel your subscription they will transfer you to the cancellation team and make you an offer. Simply say that you're unhappy with the Sky picture quality and want to go with Freeview. Hold tight at first and wait for a better offer - to start they offered me a Grade A Pace PVR1, with a 20GB HDD - not very tempting. After around 15 minutes of haggling (basically me saying I still want to leave) they will offer you cut down subs then a Pace PVR2 80GB at £79.95. 5 minutes more umm and ahhing about it they will succumb and they will offer you a new 80Gb Pace box for free including free install. Nice. It's being installed this coming Sunday.
Btw, I've been with Sky since 1998 and subscribe to Sky Sports (time spent with Sky and Sky channel package probably has some influence on what they will offer you)
