I was hoping when I call next month to cancel they might give me new offer ?
Time will tell I guess. ![]()
Like you, I cancelled after the RLWC. I also refused their 3 month reduced offer at £3.99 per month on the basis there's nothing I'll be watching on their channel during the off-season. They phoned up last week with an offer of 1st month free, followed by 3 months at £3.99 per month just in time for Auckland Nines, Championship, NRL, Origin. I cheekily said I wasn't really interested until Origin in May and their response was to offer 3 months free followed by 3 months at £3.99. I accepted that offer

I don't have Sky or Premier Sports. So all I care about is whether the numbers add up to a better deal for the sport.

I think its not a great deal, but a fear deal and could have been worse. I understand why people are saying we should have encouraged BT to become involved and do what Union has done and jumped into bed with BT. But I remind people of ITV Digital and Sentate Sports, they both went bust and the sports had to go crawling back to Sky, I believe the deal for the Football League when they went backed to sky was around a tenth of what ITV Dig where paying them and drove many clubs into deep debt. Not sure BT will even last in the business, they have paid silly money for the European Cup football. So as much as I don't like Sky and its owner I think its a fair deal

A low-cost solution for SL fans. Sign up with TalkTalk - for £7.50pm you get Broadband, landline with W/E & evening calls free, and a free Youview box and about 125 channels. Then, when the season starts, you can have the full SkySports package for £30pm (no contract needed) and stop in October or whatever.
Also, you get line rental for £10pm by paying for this bit a year in advance.
Last year I was paying Sky £74pm and it's gone up again since!

Catalan v Leeds confirmed as on the red button on Friday 28th February at 7PM as part of the new sky contract.
That makes Leeds on sky at least 12 times, without round 23 v Bradford, round 25 v St Helens and round 26 v Wigan.
2 - Leeds vs Warrington
3 - Catalan vs Leeds (Red Button)
4 - Huddersfield vs Leeds
6 - Leeds vs London
7 - St Helens vs Leeds
9 - Bradford vs Leeds
11 - Leeds vs Wigan
12 - Castleford vs Leeds
13 - Leeds vs Wigan (MM)
15 - Warrington vs Leeds
16 - Leeds vs Huddersfield
21 - Leeds vs Castleford

Me-No! I'm long retired, but I am interested in saving money since I have to exist on a state pension.
Genuine advice but if you don't like it, ignore it |

Is the Talk Talk Sky Sports pack available in HD?
Does the Talk Talk freeview box come with a built in hard drive?
Both answers would need to be yes before I could consider leaving Sky - which is something I'd consider doing if I could get the same for less elsewhere.
