Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
Better off keeping it and your bill goes up by 30 quid a month. Is that incompetence or something else, that's outrageous from them

If they do do a season ticket this time around, I think I would consider it though but certainly not at the price we are now expected pay. It is a case of won't rather than can't and I think there may be a few others like me as well.

Yep, I was quite happy with the season ticket price and happy with this half price offer. I couldn't ever imagine giving them 30 quid a month just for sports to be honest

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
Rang VM again today, MUTV was still on - pointless as I have it in HD on Sky... explained my previous call where I was told I was better off keeping Sky Sports but that my bill had gone up. Was told AGAIN, 'yes you're better off keeping it as you'd be app. £7pm worse off'. Said that I found this unbelievable as my package was £43pm this time last year, added Sky Sports & MUTV and now you want £115pm. Cut a long story, they came up with the excuse that I'd be worse off if I cancelled Sports NOW but If I wait 3 weeks to cancel my package will drop to £76!! When I asked why VM take our money a month in advance but won't cancel a service earlier than 7 days, she didn't know. End result, all sports are gone and future bills of £76.
What they seem to be using is "if you cancel now, you'll lose money" - technically they are correct but they don't offer the info that you'll be better off next month. Shoddy & disappointing VM.
EDIT: My earlier post said £29.25 but apparently it's £31.25 for SS now.

He basically told me they were hoping to hang on to sky sports customers until they could offer another season ticket, that wasn't definite but that's what they hope to be able to do

The sales guys wanted that to run from now but the cs guy managed to have it add on from Sunday so got the full value

When my season ticket was up got sports for £19 a month for 12 months which I was happy with.

?HD or SD, either way, not bad, but I'm still frothing at the mouth over their deceit. (or it might be the beer ).

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
Totally honest with you all, is that l have been seriously thinking about going to Sky, apart from the channel content. They only increase prices ONCE a year.
Didn't VM put there price up three times last year ?

Haven't you been there, done that and got the t-shirt, Arthur? I seem to recall that your experience with Sky was not that good.
And by the way, you have already been corrected on the mythical once a year price rises on Sky, I think.
