Can anyone tell me what i can say to cancel my contract before the 12 months?
like if im leaving the country or anything
do they even realise you are under your 12 months or is it a hit and miss?

my 12 months end on 4th august

Tell them you have lost your job.

That you intend to renew once you get back into work again.

The least they will do is put you on minimum package.

Get a family member to tell them your dead, this also works if you are paying of a new car :) but you will have to have the car returned to the dealership :thumbdown:

tried the unemployed line
they said i can cancel but will face a charge of ?120 quid.
so gonna make it minimum package then call them on 4th of july
if i give them 1 months notice on 4th july then will the payment they take on the 5th be the last payment they take off me?

they normally take my money on the 5th of every month

You could always tell them that since they took SKY 1 from Virgin media you feel morally obliged to stand side by side with your "Cable Brothers" and feel it impacts on your moral wellbeing.
They wont believe a word of it of course but the insanity plea lodged immediately after will be a shoo in. ;););)

Tell them your really busy playing COD and that you have no time for sky anymore.If they see you play, they will understand that you need all the practise you can get :)

I got mine cancelled very easy I think it depends on who answers the phone when you want to cancel,,I got a girl,,and all I said to her in a soft voice was that I can not no longer afford to pay it as times were really hard for the family at the minute and think she gave my her sympathy vote,and now ?44.50 a month better of now to go towards loading the house full of d-boxes,

Easiest way is to tell them your moving house to a non virgin area(you will have to find one btw) ;)

lmfao @ declan.

the easiest way is just to cancel direct debit. after about 2weeks when it's not payed they'll cut you off.then leaver it cut off for a month or 2 then ring up to pay it,but by then your agreement has been cancelled and they've got to ask you if u want it switched back on,then tell em to fook off;)

Not sure that is a good idea as it may affect you credit rating and cause problems in the future. I used the travelling for a year excuse and it worked fine.
