Pokey I worked for sky a few years back and I got hundreds of calls just like yours. Usually the person would threaten the leave and we would transfer them to the turnaround department were they had the best deals, mostly free engineer call out or 25% for 3 months or something like that. I suggest you call them threaten to leave and wait till your sent to the turnaround dept before asking for any offers, it may take you awhile on the phone but its better than paying £60.

I would still give them a call that way you know your getting proper sky engineer out and it would probably be free no harm in trying.

Pokey, ring and threaten to cancel. I had the same issue with a HD box that had gone over it's 2 year warranty. They wanted a £65 call out fee that I wasn't having at all.
I went from department to department but finally got put through to someone saying ' look, stay with us and we'll replace the box for free. How does 3 months sky for half price sound? '
My current HD box is on the way out I think, so will be doing it again soon. I'm not fussed If I have to see it through though If they call my bluff

Figured out why my sky+ ain't working!!!Just checked at the back of the house and the neighbours ave some scaffolding up...which got me thinking when the fook did that go up!!
Yesterday!!! I'ts right up against my dish so blocking the fooking signal no wonder i didn't bloody work.
Been taken down later today so fingers crossed my sky's working again and that's the problem solved
