MSE News: BT Sport: is its 'free' offer any good?

Marg

Thank you iniltous for the clarification.

My initial point was that BT's publicity says it's free for all BT customers when clearly it isn't if I have to pay another £10.

I subscribe to BT vision and it seems iniquitous that SKY viewers can get a BT service free but I wont be able to unless I move up to Infinity.......or maybe move over to SKY.

They have to pay for a card too, you know (unless they already have one). And via Sky the card (on its own) is £25.

Thank you Vision man - wasn't aware they had to buy a card too - doesn't alter the fact that BT's advertising is misleading (at best)

Maybe, but they are referring to the web streaming service which is indeed free to all BT Broadband & Infinity customers.... even if it is 'YouTube' quality.

Hi there - I am a bit confused......

I am currently on Unlimited BT Infinity Unlimited Option 2 with free unlimited anytime calls

This is costing me £31.10

I think I read somewhere that I cannot have this package anymore as they dont do it so I will have to change to one which has only free weekend calls if I add sports to my package and then this will be contract for 1 year?

This seems to be £26 (although I could add evening calls for £2)

Is this correct?

I live in a shared house, and I am half way through my Sky contract. We use Virgin for BB. I don't want to move to BT for TV and BB but I do want BT Sport via Sky. It might be possible at the end of my current Sky contract, that another member of my household will start a new Sky account so we can take advantage of a new deal. However if I signed up to BT Sport today in my name, when we finished the Sky contract, the BT Sport contract would still be active.

1. Could I sign up monthly instead of for 12 months?

2. if I can only sign up for a year, then what will happen to my BT Sport account on a viewing card I am no longer using? I don't think it's possible to put your viewing card in another Sky box?

Thanks for your help

I have a question regarding the HD.
I will be only watching BT Sport online and I have missed out on the free HD for 12 months.
Does this still mean that I will be charged £3/month for watching it in some sort of high definition on my computer?
