Default Minimum subscription?

I thinking of returning to Sky (subscribed for about 13 years but was
disgusted with both their customer service and their charging scheme).

Anyway, I may be moving home in less than 12 months. Is it a simple process
to remove the box(es) and dish and arrange a private installation elsewhere?
Is it difficult to do a diy installation (out of curiosity I called a few
companies this morning and was quoted upwards of £150 - this does seem very
expensive).

Sky do a "moving home" service where you leave the esiting dish and cabling
(and they try to interest the new owner) but take the STB. Sky install a
brand new dish at the new house.

This costs something like £40 all in.

Thanks. Can't find any details of it on the Sky website - I've tried some
creative searching too.

I went straight from the home page to the "Sky Help Centre" and then
clicked on "Moving Home":

HTH. I've seen it mentioned in their excuse for a magazine, too.


Thanks - I'm usually pretty good at findings things but this one passed me
by. All I could find, through a search of the site, was:
