Spotted this over on the DS forum, and may be useful foe somebody:

Sky have a brand new offer this month that's being advertised at Universities around the country.

The main draw for students staying away from home during term times is that you can stop and start the subscription at any time. There is no minimum contract. You need a NUS card to be eligible.

For £49 you get a refurbished digibox, remote, dish and installation. After that you'll pay £2 more per month than the regular Sky subscription prices. This may seem like a raw deal but if, like me, you're away for say 9 or 10 months of the year it's cheaper than cancelling the contract and paying it off, especially if you subscribe to a few mixes or premium channels.

£17 per month for 2 mixes, £20 for 4 mixes or £23 for all six mixes. Premium channels do of course carry the usual high price tags.

This offer is not available with any other hardware - you get a refurbished digibox - Sky+ and HD are not available on a month-by-month basis.

The url you need to visit is: http://www.sky.com/students

Ends December 15th.
