Sky User Reviews
I have been with Sky for around 6 years now - and I have no complaints about their service. Sky+ is an essential part of my life - without it I would be lost. It allows me to watch all of my fave TV programmes and still have a social life at the same time! The ability to skip through the adverts is also a massive thumbs up - thanks Sky!

I've been with Sky for a few years now and I have to say that I have had no problems with the service at all. It can be a pain getting through to their call centre but I've had to do it so rarely that it doesn't bother me. The range of programming on Sky is excellent, arts and culture programming on Sky Arts to The Simpsons, there is rarely nothing on. Sky + has become essential for me so I can view the football anytime I like!
Nigel Spodington (14th October, 2009)
i recently changed to sky and decided to go for the sky hd package! to be honest, i was a bit scepticle as i didnt think there would be that much difference, how wrong could i be? i am a massive football fan, and watching a game in HD makes more difference than i could ever imagine, the sharper quality of picture is amazing ( and my tv is not the best, so god only knows how much better it would be on a slightly newer tv) i have even started watching more nature programmes as it really makes you feel that you could actually be there with attenborough himself. an extra £10 a month?? i would have paid more than double!! plus you get a nicer box than sky+ i say get the HD package and get even more out of your tv!!!
Mike Farida (27th September, 2009)
Ive been a Sky customer for over 10 years now. I now have sky plus and find that it has changed my viewing habits dramatically! Where as before I used to flick through the hundreds of channels almost continuously. I now have a "play list" of really great TV programs to watch and the press of a button. The one downside to Sky is that I do find it hard to get through to their customer service department during busy period to upgrade to SKy movies or SKy sports etc. Generally though I give Sky+ 9/10!...love it.
