Knicksen Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I'm on Virginmedia and see that tomorrow's game is on BT Sport. I can remember when you used to be able to buy single games for viewing through a freeview box. Can you do the same these days, or is it all bundled into monthly packages? I really only watch Hearts (in the flesh or in the pub), don't want a BT or wider Sports bundle and don't want to pay anything that gives Murdoch's Sky any of my money out of detestation for him and what he stands for.

EIEIO Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 You could probably add BT sports for about a tenner a month then cancel it on Monday . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bilel Mohsni Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I just added BT sport on Virgin media. 15 quid for one month. I'd spend more watching it in the pub, so that'll do I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a VPN service from the itunes store and you'll be able to watch BT Sport on your ipad as if you were in the UK. The good VPN services charge but most offer first month free.

Guest Bilel Mohsni Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Other than BT Sports the XL package is fairly poor. That was the reason we downgraded.

AllyjamboDerbyshire Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I just realised the game was on BT about an hour before I came to work. Decided I had to see the game, and pubs down here won't be showing it, so have added BT Sport to my Sky. Cost me bloody ?28.50 to do it, ?13.50 per month plus ?15 connection fee. They know how to put people off just joining for one football match then cancelling! Wouldn't pay a penny to watch any other team than Hearts, so got a decision whether to cancel after the match or pay for games I'm not really interested in. There's a 30 day notice period for cancellations so no doubt it'll cost me another ?13.50 even if I cancel immediately after the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gigolo-Aunt Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 On Virgin and have all the football channels. Phoned them up and got a great deal.

Knicksen Posted October 26, 2014 Author Share Posted October 26, 2014 Thought I'd report back as the originator of this lot. Good advice to phone Virgin. Our contract had lapsed. We were on Medium telly package. ?15 to add BT only, ?15 plus discount to make it ?13.50 for XL Telly inc BT Sport. Can downgrade at any point, so could do that just after the Rangers game and it will have cost ?13.50 for two Hearts games. Only other commitment was a renewed contract for another year. Beers bought last night, sorted. Now just hoping Robbo is fit for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
