thought it was this thread but obviously no because I havnt posted, but around this time I posted I,d been offered to carry on with my £15 offer,till something better was offered and could cancel at anytime,someone said they were going to  follow me in.
just been checking my bank statements and found out ive been paying 24 95,since oct, and when the wife phoned to complain,they said we hadn't been given that offer and there,s no record of us making a call in nov,anyway I decided to cancel,still get chelt because it finishes on 23rd,but they offered me a 12 month deal 6 at 15,6 at full price ,but as ive already paid 3 at full price its like 9 months at full price to me,so I declined and I,ll wait to see if any offer,s come along,
was just wondering if anyone can remember getting a continuation of a £15 deal around black Friday time,and it wasn't honoured

45 minute wait to get through.
So to save people time who may be in the same boat as me...
The Black Friday offer ONLY exists for brand new customers or 'out of contract' returning customers(you have to initiated the 30 day cancellation previously).
The offer anyway does not include Sky Q customers or those using a minibox or miniboxes.
The best deal for current Sky Q customers is a £10 discount off the full price. It is and has always been an £10 extra charge for miniboxes.
So the best deal for Sky Q with miniboxes is a non-contract £24.98 a month.
