Default £1 offer, then downgrade, any problems?

HI, I live in a very poor TV reception area, with no freeview. I have
been told by a sky installer that I can get the £1 online instal,
whilst subscribing to the £38 per month package, then downgrade after
month 1 to the £12.50 per month package. Will they do this, or do
they charge you the instal price? Help, as this seems the cheapest
way to get digital tv.

Yes they`ll do this. You have to subscribe for at least a year though. After
that you can stop your sub. and get to keep your dish and box.

Yes you can do this. The £12.50 package is far from any "value" to it. I
would go for the £19,50 package if I were you. You get alot more.

The choice Mark, is yours

You are probably right, however, only want to get better picture
quality and ceebeebies.
