Not sure how that would work though, if you wanted sky for the films, but did not want to pay for sports until live transmission can be resumed. there part of a different package. So you can suspend sport for now, but it wont affect anything else, you would still receive other channels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you actually suspended your sport package with them, as knowing there devious ways with splitting there offers up and there different lengths of contract per offer if you reinstate they will put it back on an 18month contract starting again.

OveFundinFan Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RebelDan Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OveFundinFan Posted March 22, 2020 Report Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPD444 Posted March 22, 2020 Report Share 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.
