About 6 months ago we ditched Sky and got a Freeview box...
Well our finances should ease up slightly in a month or so, so we were thinking about getting back on the Sky bandwagon... maybe even going the whole hog and getting a spangly new HD box.
Anyway, last week, Sky sent us a '6 months half price come back to Sky' offer, which runs out at the end of the month, and today they followed it up with a phone call.
They went through tempting offer after tempting offer, at one point even offering us a Sky+ box for £49 and still having 6 months half price.
After each offer, I told them I'd talk it over with MrsK and ring them back.
"I just have this one final offer I have to tell you about" she said earnestly... "no-one ever believes me when I offer it them"
"As a special with the the World Cup coming up, how about the Sky Family Pack, and the Sports channels, but no movies, for 66 pence for two months"
"66 pence? Really? Ah, go on then."
She then tells me that our account is actually in credit by £4.26 (which they'd never told us about before), so we're not actually having to pay a thing!
