Well said. I have some sky programmes, but really resent how they package their mixes. We only watch about 4 programmes, on a regular basis on Sky, but these all fall into seperate mixes, so have to pay £19.00 fro the 'privilege'. I think the quality on most Sky programmes is rubbish, so many repeats. When the BBC HD freesat is launched I will definitely be kicking Sky into touch.
Their customer service department is terrible, you can be on hold for 20 minutes then speak to someone whose grasp of the English Language leaves a lot to be desired. Just grateful, when I have rung them that I have found a geographic number (which doesn't cost me anything to ring) for them on Saynoto0870, rather than pay the inflataed price of calls to their 0870 number (dread to think how much that would cost). Is really annoys me that you can upgrade your package online, but need to speak to a customer advisor to downgrade.
