Martin Lewis has advised Sky customers on how they can save money on their monthly bills. The Mirror reported that it was during his Cost of Living special, which he co-presented with Susanna Reid, when he outlined his top tip that has saved previous customers nearly £500 a year.
The money saving expert explained that people who have an account with Sky should phone and ask to be put through to cancellations, as the department is keen not to lose customers. During the live show a man messaged in to say how Lewis’ tip saved him £41 a month on his Sky package, a total of £492 per year.
He explained that going through with the cancellation could also save customers money, if they were to shop around for separate broadband-only and TV deals, instead of opting for a package. During the show, newsreader Charlotte Hawkins said messages were coming in from viewers thanking him for his valuable tips, The Daily Express reported.
She said: “Just to say reaction coming in already to all of your advice. Richard sent a message in from Twitter and said he’s just contacted Sky and managed to reduce his bill by £41 a month by doing exactly what you said so he’s very grateful.” This added up to a staggering saving of £492 a year.
