No existing customer has ever had sky+ for £99
 
That is what Sky said when I called them today.

The person sitting opposite me got Sky+ for £99, but apparently he is a
liar.

Oh well. My cancelleation stands then.

means blowing up one or two synagogues here and there, I don't care.

No it doesn't. I *know* people who have had the upgrade for £99, and people
on this group have alluded to it.

Or are you calling them all liars as well?

Woohoo! Just had a call from Sky. They will upgrade to Sky+ on Wednesday for
£99. Looks like it pays to follow through and be prepared to cancel.

It is. When I first spoke to them a couple of weeks ago, the "manager" on
the phone said that there was absolutely no way anyone could get it for £99.
I told him to check my account then in a few months once I had spoken to
someone with authority. Bet he won't though :)
