Paul Cunningham (@PaulPc94) reported@cxdi55 @skytv @SkyHelpTeam So I used to be a retentions advisor for another supplier. As others have advised, place an order with another company, even if you have no intention of leaving. Sky retentions will contact you, as at that point, they can treat you as a new customer and give you those deals.

Debs Robinson (@debs_robinson) reported@SkyHelpTeam I love when u are close to the end of contract and everything keeps going into muppet mode and not working. You have to ask the question is it a ruse to claim better products and charge u more??????? Maybe it’s time for a change !!!!!

maiden86 (@ntlufc) reported@SkySports . another old man Aussie coming across for a final big pay deal at hull fc for 1 season It never ends. Cherry-evans is 38-39 years old stopping a possible British player developing in to his position It’s not huge news it’s sad news for young British league players
