Hi guys
I'm trying to resubscribe to TUTV so I can watch the darts on Sky sports over Christmas but I can't get through to anyone!
WTF. Has it gone? Should I either bother risking my bank details with them lol?
I don't want to do it online, coz normally they have a better offer over the phone.
Anyone got a number that will get thru to them?
What's happened to Sam the man!?

Think most of their staff went off to get more secure jobs. One of them went to work for the Evil Empire that is Sky. Since he was evil anyway seemed like a sensible move
Theres not much life left on TUTV let alone this forum so you pays your money and takes your chance. Give that number a try and see how you get on.
It can be cool being the only man on the island:cool:
And yes I still subscribe to TV Fav. package not much of sports fan.
Haven't been since Ian Rush left LFC, and that's a long time ago:eek:
Anyway good luck with the phone number hope you get through and don't have any problems:)
Ha ha! Sorry Sam.
Really, unless its free why on earth would I go back ????
I laughed also.
Considering they are a buisness trying to generate new customers, it makes perfect sense for them to contact you. What on earth would happen if they gave you and so many others it for free?
We can't really afford to change for several reasons so we have stayed with them and will continue to stay until the end as we can't have freesat and really isn't money available for Sky or Virgin and we are unable to get internet for several reasons as well so end result this is it for us.
If they could get investment and rebrand the service then get a new PVR unit that is HD ready etc and could be hooked to the internet, if you had it, then they might turn things around but I don't see that happening.
Top up tv is handy when you don't want to get a 12 month contract with Sky.
Thats the main issue i have with Sky.
They insist you subscribe for 12 months and you MUST have a basic channels package too, both of which, i DO NOT want but they insist on it so, TopUp TV for me will always win.
The PQ is good enough and its not to costly either IMO.
What about when Sky Sports becomes available on Now TV via Roku? This could be a winner if the subscriptions are as flexible as the movie service.
Its something i will certainly look at but do i want to hammer my internet use?
Whilst i don't have a download limit, there is a fair usage policy to consider and if there is heavy traffic, the quality goes down badly!
Its getting better, but its got to get alot better before IPTV wont be a worry for some in terms of usage policy and risking of quality taking the dive it currently does when traffic is heavy.
...in which case presumably Sky will be undermining their own satellite sports subscription service which, as popeye13 quite rightly points out above, requires that a customer buys a basic entertainment pack first in order just to get the opportunity to buy the sports pack. That seems a bit of a rip off to me and not good value for money.
Whilst I can see your logic, I just don't see how contacting an ex customer would automatically assume that I would ever go back to them. Unless their technology has improved I won't be going back... Maybe try someone else, I for one won't ever recommend top up tv to anyone.
Also as Argos one of top up tv main distributors now sells the new you view perhaps top up tv is going the way of dinosaurs.
Same can be said for the live Sky movie channels offered through Now TV. They can be accessed for £1 less than if you got them via satellite from Sky direct - and there's no minimum requirement of the Entertainment Pack.
They must be confident that they'll lose a minimum number of subscribers or they wouldn't do it.
Closing down sale. Everything must go
