FREE SKY STORE MOVIE
Your first port of call as a Sky customers should be the VIP scheme.
It’s totally free to join – you just need to download the Sky app and then head into the VIP section.
Sign up and you’ll get loads of rewards, offers, and opportunities to win prizes.
But importantly, you’ll get a free Sky Store movie download right off the bat.
These can cost up to £20, so it’s a decent freebie.
You don’t have to claim this right away – so you can wait for something better to turn up in the Sky Store if you prefer.
Saving: Up to £20
FREE CINEMA TICKETS
If you’re paying for Sky Cinema, you’ll get loads of top movies on your telly.
But you may not have realised that you also get free tickets to an actual cinema too.
Every single month, you can claim a pair of tickets to see a movie at Vue cinemas without paying a penny extra.
You just need to go into the MySky app, head into Sky VIP, and then tap on Your Vue Tickets.
You’ll be able to claim two codes, which you can then redeem at Vue cinemas.
The catch is that you can only use these tickets once a month, and only between Sunday and Thursday.
You’re also only able to use them for Regular, Saver, and Super Saver seat types – so no posh recliner chairs here.

A ticket at Vue normally costs somewhere in the region of £6 to £8, so this is a great freebie.
Yearly Saving: £192 (2 x 12 tickets)
FREE NETFLIX MEMBERSHIP
One of the best perks about being a Sky TV customer is the free Netflix subscription.
Loads of Sky packages include Netflix as standard.

So if you’ve got a Sky Ultimate TV, Sky Glass, or Sky Stream package, you’re eligible to claim Netflix Standard with Ads.
This Netflix plan normally costs £5.99 a month – that’s £71.88 ever year.
The only catch to watch out for here is that you’ll have to sit through ads.
But if you want to upgrade to an ad-free Netflix plan, you’ll only pay the difference – and still get your free portion.
