Pausing Sky Sports subscriptions

1) I'm probably going to get into trouble for posting in the wrong forum but wasn't sure which one to post this in

2) you've probably so done this weeks ago

... but if you have sky sports subscription you can pause the payments for it (and still get the channels)

If you subscribe directly to sky:
https://www.sky.com/pausesports

If you get it (and/or BT sports) via Virgin:

That multi billion pound company which routinely pays hundreds of millions of pounds for the rights to screen football?

Yeah funnily enough people actually do subscribe to it.

Oh sod off with that nonsense. I have IPTV, VPN, high speed broadband all that carry on, but it doesn’t come close to the proper subscription. Not a chance and nobody who lives in the real world think it does either. Lower picture quality, usually minutes behind, temperamental connections etc.

It’s just internet freeloaders who think they’ve got one up on everyone else that come out with this %@#$&!s.

What is actually on Sky Sports at the moment? Genuinely curious.

Well, duh.

Can't be showing that much, you know, actual live stuff right now tho?

The presenters on Sky Sports News are not wearing ties anymore.

Shocking drop in standards.

Jim White was wearing a polo neck and jacket combo the other night. Looked a right £#%&!er.

You can do online but think you have to ask

I watched most of the Cricket World Cup final vs NZ the other day... Things like that - re-runs of games basically.

BT Sport have a nice selection of downloadable CL game highlights. So far I've watched
United vs Porto (97)
United vs Arsenal (09)
United vs Roma (07)
Untited vs Barca (h/a) 98
United vs Bayern 99
Dortmund vs Juve 97

You get the idea... games when we used to be good.

Cheers mate

Someone told me that if you are on a discounted deal, when you start back up you’re on full price - is that right?

Depends if you were a good/long term customer before cancelling. I left Sky about 18 months ago (after about 15 years) and they still occasionally call me offering me big discounts to sign back up with them.
