dytkos 17,806 Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Cancelled my Sky package when we moved in Feb, decided to get another package, mostly for the Sky Plus box, Discovery Shed for me (cars and fishing) and Dave, Gold etc all that other bollox for her. Went on line to Skyand got quoted £15.50 a month for the basic package. Googled "Cheap Sky Deals" and got the same package from Sky, through Sky and a £100 Tesco Gift Card for £10.50 on a 12 month contract. It has cost me £26 for my Sky viewing, 50p a month. I'll be doing the same again next Feb. Cheers, D. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

johnny boy68 11,726 Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 I got a box from China for £48, it's a twin tuner so can watch one channel while recording another, does everything a sly box does even as the sly skin. I pay £60 a year for all the channels including all the ppv boxing, no freezing or glitches. Tried the free servers but got fed up of updating every few weeks so just pay the £60 a year now. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
