OveFundinFan 4,143 Posted March 21, 2020 (edited) Saw a news snippet last night, cant remember where, but BT can suspend packages until future time. Cant do a link, and some may already have seen this....but on www.speedwaygp.com website there is a fantastic race in Prague GP 2015 where NK Iversen gates last but ends up ...…….. Been some good snippets recently, no doubt more to come as no live speedway to comment on. Edited March 21, 2020 by OveFundinFan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RebelDan 203 Posted March 21, 2020 Did it online yesterday via the Sky website takes 30 days to activate which is a bit of a cheek considering there is no live sport in the next 4 weeks. Reduces my monthly dd by £20 - you still get to watch all sky sports channels during the suspension Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OveFundinFan 4,143 Posted March 22, 2020 Got a message from BT earlier last week, they removing Movie 24 from the package I have on 31 March. Reason we joined BT TV was so I could watch speedway and the wife Movie 24. Now there is no speedway, MotoGP and now Movie24 dropped it gives me the legal right to cancel. Just have the problem now to talk to someone at BT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SPD444 112 Posted March 22, 2020 Tried for 3 days, not all day but a couple of hours each day, to cancel BT Sports but never spoke to anyone, so I have cancelled my D/D. Wonder if they will call me now. With Sky, I just subscribe to a couple of Sports Channels so could not pause online. Rang them and managed to pause them.

RS50 359 Posted March 22, 2020 BT and Sky may not be under any legal obligation to cancel subscriptions for anyone under contract. However, they should remember that these contracts do not last forever, and how they treat us now could affect how much business they have in the future. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If prices go up during contract there is a legal obligation for supplier to cancel if customer wishes. Stopped the signing up then 3 months later a price rise, that is a surprise and the customer doesn't not want to pay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been wondering how many people might just decide not to reactivate their sports subscriptions when this is eventually over , some might just decide they can live without it 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
