The short answer is "no", you cannot de-reg & take cash instead.
The long explanation......
For those who have PREVIOUSLY won a UKPC Seat, & at the discretion of the Business, yes, this is often possible & permitted.
For "first time winners", no, absolutely not. Sky Poker would be shooting themselves in the foot if they allowed that. Imagine if 20 or 30 people qualified then de-regged for cash, & the Guarantee was missed! It'd be a crazy thing to do, really.
T & C's #7 addresses this matter fully, fairly & squarely.....
"...7. No cash alternative is available for any part of the Sky Poker UKPC Main Event seat. Winners must not sell or transfer their Sky Poker UKPC Main Event seat to any third party and winners are responsible for the payment of any applicable tax, if any, due on winning the Prize, and/or any prize money won by participating in the Event...."

Sorry about that, but that's how it is.
It's going to be a cracking Tourney, though, with a 6 figure sum going to the winner. I hope you decide to play it - come say "Hi" if you do please. Or even give me a slap round the chops.
...meanwhile, back at UKPC base camp, note the latest name on the Entry List.
You have been warned.
If i win a second seat to the final valued at £1100 can i de reg, un reg, and get re-imbursed the sum of £1100?.
Bye the way......................Hi.
Not sure if we are at cross purposes here, but to be clear, the FIRST seat that you, or anyone else, wins via a SkyPoker.com satellite to the UKPC is non-refundable, non-turn-into-cash-able & non-transferable - effectively, your chips are NOW IN PLAY.
Should you win another seat, you'd need to speak to Customer Care, & the £1,100 value would presumably be turned into seat entries for tournaments on SkyPoker.com (UKOPS maybe?), or, & only at the discretion of the Business, a cash refund. This will NOT apply in any circumstances to the first seat won.
In last night's weekly SuperSat, near misses for, amongst others, GELDY, MattBates, chicknMelt, The Hippo, & Slykllist, but the winner, who joins the Lobby for the event itself, was none other than the biggest luckbox since Yoyo & TommyD......
I give you.....

There will be FIVE Guaranteed seats in this Sunday's final, @ 9.15pm, & feeders galore to that.
Incredible scenes in last night's UKPC Final. It had 5 seats Guaranteed, & made no less than EIGHT seats, with £880 for ninth place, which went to ChicknMelt.
