Sky Broadband Moving an Issue

So last Saturday I moved into my new "Diet House", temporary accommodation while myself & Sarah desperately try and find a house worth purchasing. "Diet House" already had a Sky dish, but only with a single LNB, so ringing up Sky they quiet happily move my account to the new address, and slap on a �40 charge to upgrade the dish. This is clearly unacceptable, so a quick bout off "I'm not paying that I'd like to cancel my account", and the charge is waived. Yesterday the engineer came round and replaced the entire dish and LNB with a shiny new one, suitable for all my Sky+ Requirements!.

Sky Broadband however is a different kettle of fish, being a new service i get the impression they don't deal with many house moves. So after several conversations the procedure is as follows!.

• You tell Sky broadband your moving


• They cancel your broadband account
  
  
  
  • Despite you just receiving the Free Equipment and the 12 month contract
  
  
  
  


• You can then resubmit you broadband application ( AFTER 1 Month! )

1 Month is slight craziness, but I thank Sky for my Free Netgear Wifi Access Point, ( and ADSL router if I re flash it ). So i have ordered a BT home hub ( mainly because it looks sexy ). So I should be back on-line again next Wednesday!
