Anyone work for Sky and can get me a 1TB HD box for less than £249?

As per the title guys.

My current HD box is out of warranty and is playing up. Sky tonight have quoted my £249 to replace it with a 1TB box which is a little steep I though especially since it was £149 for a 1TB box and self install a little over a week ago.

Cheers.

Man up and pay for it, if they do work for sky and can get cheap boxes I imagine they are reserved for friends and family and not internet rando's, Tight as a ducks arse.

Why not cancel, and get it installed again ?

I was after one, quoted £250. Actually cancelled, they still wouldn't budge. Now on Freesat and saving £28/month.

Offer was meant to end on 30th June but because Sky finally acknowledge the older Thomson Hd boxes were s**t they'll let owners of that box upgrade for £149. (You might have to call more than once and be persistant)

If you have an Amstrad, Pace or Samsung HD box then tough.

I thought the cheap offer was just for people who had had the original box when it first came out (i.e. 4 years ago). I had the original box but got it 3 years ago (2007). They wouldn't let me have the offer, and I called three times and eventually cancelled!

Sold the old box on eGay for £60.

Just received the latest version 1tb box, rang up and got it for £49 + £15 delivery. Should get a few quid for my old HD box
