Your Sky TV bill is about to rocket – here’s how much more you’ll pay

As predicted, Sky is following its rivals by hiking prices for millions of customers across the UK. The popular TV and telecoms giant has just confirmed that things will increase from April with both television and broadband users thought to be affected. Although that’s clearly bad news for those about to be hit by higher prices, Sky’s changes are not as big as those coming from both BT and Virgin.

Sky says that, on average, bills are going up by 8.1 percent – around £60 per year.

That’s compared to a whopping 14.4 percent hike from BT and an average of 13.8 percent from Virgin Media. Other Intenet Service Providers including TalkTalk and Vodafone are also ramping things up by over 14 percent.

Each Sky customer will be affected differently depending on their current deal but those using the firm’s services will be informed soon about the exact amount that will be added to their monthly outgoings.

Some customers who aren’t happy about the changes might find they can leave without paying the usual penalties and it’s worth giving the company a call if you get your new bill and feel things are unfair.
