I got an increase too, but it was in the letter that came with the
magazine rather than in the magazine itself. From £18 to £19 - so that's
a whopping 5.6% increase, with RPI inflation at 4.3% and CPI inflation
at 2.5% :-(

We all know R/CPI are only to work out how much of a pay rise your not
getting ( unless your an MP), everything else ignores it ;)

Never mind the "extra" they had to bid to get the Premiership footy in face
of competition from Satanta. All complaints should be sent to the EU for
creating an even worse bidding war for sports!

Apparently, the cost of the 2 mix package is going up from £15 to £17 in
November, that would be a ridiculous 13% increase.

.......or to put it another way - next time Colleen goes shopping in the
States it's "our" money she's effectively spending!

Sky+ functions are free as long as you subscribe to any package, from 2
mixes and up.

i cancelled sky sports and went down to a 4 mix this afternoon and the
playback is still working (at the moment!).
the woman on the phone made a point of warning me that any sports recording
i had wouldnt work any more but didnt mention playback stopping altogether.

If it does, I will unsubscribe and go back to paying just £10/month for the
Sky+ functions

Everyone pays £1 more. People with "everything" and HD aren't going to
notice £1!

2 mixes stays at £15, for now at least. So not everyone.
