Hi everyone, we haven't had sky since our telemarketing desk ran out Jan 2020. Has anyone in the last 6 months rung them for a deal or Andy the sky guy?

I saw a facebook post giving X months free to new customers they didn’t want to offer me the same deal to re sign my contract so I said ill just disconnect and reconnect, put me through to a advanced retention team
and go $65 p/m for basic/entertainment/sport/mysky for 12 months - I took it and by then I will know if Spark Sport will win the rights to the Rugby and NRL and if to keep sky or not

You can forget about Spark Sport, Sky has the rights for Rugby to end of 2025 and NRL to the end of 2022.

I see... hopefully by 2025 the remaining 15% of the NZ population will get decent broadband making the satellite delivery method redundant - May switch to Sky Sport Now in 12 months time

Zero interest in cricket, its like watching paint dry, NRL And Union is what keeps me to Sky and I really hope that these don't get split between two providers
