Sky price rises from June

Sky has confirmed that it will be increasing the price of its pay TV packages from the 1st June 2016.

Last year, Sky’s price rise was quickly followed by increases in line rental, TV and broadband charges at BT, a move which saw “free” access to all BT Sport channels being reduced to just BT Sport 1. BT sibling Plusnet followed with its own price changes, as did TalkTalk, before Sky then increased some of its telephone charges at the end of the year. Virgin Media then followed, with prices rises that came into force on the 1st February of this year, concluding the price rise cycle of all major providers.
Under its terms and conditions, Sky state that they can increase costs by up to 10% during a customer’s contract period.
