advice anyone? I have Sky with the movie channels/sports it's costing me €71 per month - which is crazy as I don't watch sports or childrens channel but I do like some of the movies - especially the oldies - any suggestions as to which way I can alter my package to make it more economical? And what's the best way to contact Sky - email or phone to make the changes?

I agree totally with Zag. If the cost in the UK was the same as in Ireland would you be happy? You would still be paying the same amountI don't have any friends in the UK.
I do have work colleagues there and they pay less for their Sky service. They also pay less for their Rolls Royces. How can I teach those money grabbing Rolls Royce dealers a lesson ? Oh, I know, I swear I will never buy another Roller in Ireland. Ever.
I also have work colleagues in the Netherlands. I'm almost sure they're paying less for their Big Macs in Amsterdam than we do in Dublin. I think I'm going to teach McDonalds (Ireland) a lesson and not buy another Big Mac from them.
Oh hang on a sec, why not just base my purchasing decisions on my evaluation of the relative cost and benefit *to me* and not worry about how much others are paying in other countries. If it's too expensive here I won't buy it. If everyone does this then some retailers will lower some prices. If people continue to buy at 'high' prices then retailers would be stupid and not acting in their shareholders interests if they just lowered prices out of the goodness of their hearts.
If you were a retailer and people in BallyNormal were willing to pay you €1 per unit of your product, but people in BallyBling were willing to pay €1.50 per unit, what would you do ? You would do exactly as Sky do - maximise revenue and profits.

Hi. I'm new here, just registered. I'm in the process of having Sky installed. (this coming Friday). Re contacting SKY Ireland, I have just found out from my phone provider (UTV phone and Internet), that the 0818 719 819 number for Sky is charged at a PREMIUM rate! I have premium calls barred and must dial 00353 818 719 819 to get through to Sky. Don't know about any one else out there, but to me, having a premium rate number for customer service seems a nonsense and is unacceptable.Sky with the full Movies package is €57/month
Ring 0818 719 819 and just tell them to remove the Sky Sports package.
Full list of package costs are here ...
