I changed my mind and ordered it. Around 8 -10 weeks left of the NRL, the odd football friendly is a bonus.

Will decide during this time if it is worth it.

After this I will want to cancel, do I have to give 30 days notice or can I cancel immediately after the initial 30 days?

Wow - that was efficient, straight from previous post, tried PS and it was there.

Just set recordings of NRL and ICC football for the weekend.

Just hope picture quality is bearable on a big screen.

AFAIK, You have to give 30 days notice.

Re: Premier sports offers?
 

Received an email saying I had changed my package and the new price is £129.99 pm.

Nearly had heart failure as pre adding Prem Spts it was £85pm (new starter offer)

Rang them up to be told this was an error phew!

It transpires Prem Spts is £9.99pm not £8 and you have to ring up to cancel giving 30 days notice.

Put note in my diary to do so on 4th Sept as NRL Grand Final is 1st October.

Is Premier Sports still owned by Setanta?

I'm wondering if it (or a derivative of it) are going FTA.

A new sports channel is said to be launching on one of the temporary Freeview muxes on 31/8/17.

It is to be called 'Freesports' and designed "to bring all your favourite sports to Freeview".

Setenta are believed to be behind this. Aren't they owned by Eir Sports now?

Not sure if VM will pick this up.

Re: Premier sports offers?
 

I believe it is still owned by Setanta (I think Setanta uk went bust years ago),

The head office address is in the same building. I had it for a while whilst a sky subscriber, you had to deal with them not sky for cancellations - absolute nightmare.

Hopefully, cancelling via Virgin will be as easy as subscribing was.

More info. courtesy of MB:

I wonder if Premier Media is a trading name for Setanta?? They might have wanted to distance themselves from Setanta UK following its collapse.

Re: Premier sports offers?
 

I've established that, although owned by Premier Media/Setanta, Freesports will be separate to Premier Sports which won't be going FTA.
