Just tell them u want to cancel. They will try to bull shit u. Keep saying cxl when they put u through to cancellation department see what they can offer you. But let them suggest they want to offer you otherwise they think your bluffing about cancelling. I had full package for £47 month last year

As said before just phone up and say you want to cancel everything or you want to change to Virgin, they will phone you up within 2/3 days with a much better deal and they will offer you a much better deal than you would ever get if you phoned them normally.

I have done this a few times now even though I can't get Virgin in my area and I only pay £2 a month for skysports compared to what I was paying for tv Internet and phone. It is still more than I want to pay but I would never have got that unless I said I wanted to leave.

Ask to be put through to disconnections when you ring as that department has better options and bigger discounts than the people u will initially speak to.. Just tell them that virgin has offered u the same package for 'x' amount less a month as a new customer so as your loyalty to sky u want to stay but want a aignificant reduction every month

The last 3 years Iv had sky half price . It's simple just cancel your subscriptions and with in a month you will get a letter offering u 50% off if you return . If you phone then and say your leaving they will only offer around 25% off . Trust me it works every time , a few of my mates also so this .
