As someone with a Sky Plus box already I couldn't do that myself - but then, what with the rugby being on Sky more and more now, I decided to get Sky Sports. Phone them up; "hi I would like Sky Sports and I want it for free", "I'm sorry sir you have to pay for it", "In that case I would like to cancel my contract", "Let me just talk to a manager ... Certainly sir, we have activated your Sky Sports subscription - free for 6 months".
Used the same thing with O2 to get a £150 phone down to nothing as well!
