Err,

No.

Its available to subscribers of Sky, VM and Top-Up TV.

Are you being a bit of a rascal posting this on the Vision forum mostyn?

Of course not. I had no idea that (if you're correct) Vision customers were the only ones not to benefit from this.

Mason is correct, "Freeview, BT Vision and TUTV customers will not be able to watch."

Ahh. Any idea why Vision and TUTV customers are being isolated?

Astra 1A · 24-09-2010, 22:31

moved to BT Vision 3 weeks back, but still have 2 weeks left on my Sky Box (4 mix without sports&movies) after putting them on a months notice.

Mrs Astra 1A rather unfairly wouldn't let me add Sky Sports to the BT package...

So bring it on Sunday !!

12:00 Bolton -v- United ESPN on BT
14:05 Wolves -v- Villa Sky Sports Free
16:10 Newcastle -v- Stoke Sky Sports Free

Just need to work out how to encourage Mrs Astra 1A to leave me in peace...

HA HA!

Love it.

I'll be watching them all too.

And as for the OP, who is a VM customer, not Vision, methinks may have been up to some light-hearted rib-tickling.

But hit the wrong spot.

You really should see someone about your paranoia. I was merely bringing news of some quality viewing being available to brighten up Vision customers' miserable viewing experience.

I had no idea at the time that BT were the only ones to deny their customers this.

masona2 · 25-09-2010, 16:07

Nope,

Still hitting the wrong spot.

I read an artical in which a Sky spokesman stated they felt offering one day of free sports to freeview pay subscribers would not attract new business.

But offering it to existing subscribers of Sky and VM who did not already have sports would.

Plus, it could be interpreted as a poke-in-the-eye to Vision and TopUpTV subscribers to say OOAH! What are you doing with THEM???

You should be with us.

Because we're nice people.

An amazing claim. You're claiming that Sky have control over BT's conditional access system??? URL?

Gibberish as usual. By the way, how are you getting on with that 'Internet HD' in your area?
