BT Vision and Setanta

Guys,
At the beginning of this year we subscribed to BT Vision in the main because I wanted to watch the sports brought by Setanta (which would have cost £10 a month without BT Vision and an extra couple of quid for all the on-demand stuff didn't seem like a bad deal).
However, since then not only have BT put up the monthly price of the Bronze value pack from £13.70 to £14.68 (OK only 98p a month but not what my 12 month contract agreed!)
Now we here that Setanta is heading into administration and is likely to lose the sports packages which in the main I signed up for.
Here is my question, do I have a right to end the contact early if Setanta are pulled off the air?

I would doubt it, but you could try.
Part of the T&C's you signed up for is that they will add and remove content.Dave. :wave:0 -
When Virgin lost Sky one and stuff a few years back I cancelled stating that I was not getting the service which I had signed up to. lol. I had about 4 months contract left and they cancelled everything instantly.0
