Sky for local Cricket Club
Can anyone tell me the monthly costs etc that would be incurred by having
Sky installed in our local cricket club. Don't think we could justify the £194 a month fee that I spotted on the Sky website. I heard a rumour that the monthly fee is actually based on rateable value of the premises. Anyone any ideas???? Thanks Ian

Indeed. -- Digibox problem? : A reboot solves 90% of these.

It's always the same. You get phone, you pay more. You get Broadband, you pay more. You get Sky, you pay more! Just seems to be that if you're a business you have to pay shed loads more!

Or if you don't have Sky, all your punters go elsewhere and you lose money. They can't lose, can they? Alec

We barely break even due to the hard work of a number of volunteers. We take around £32k a year over the bar. Our club treasurer has said there is no way the club could justify spending £2,500 a year on TV channels. I was basically wondering if Sky would take turnover such as this into account when such a small "business" wishes to become a customer. Ian
