I think everyone still has it...

Press backup and it will go away if you are watching that channel

So looks like I'm Freesat only till next August, lets hope the BT TV deals are still as good. ......

Or that Plusnet finally launch a tv service- a Youview-based IPTV service has been in trial by some Plusnet customers for many months, I believe, and a staff trial since early 2013.

The point is that it shouldn't be there, I'm aware of how to make it disappear. It returns after ad breaks too.

I have got my name on the list if they open the trials again, but its been 12 months since the last one. So yes, hopefully soon. I can hang on for a bit.

Although just noticed quidco are offering £180 if you switch to BT Infinity and BT TV, so could cut my losses on the line rental for the good deal now?

There seems to be an off-topic conversation going on here that has nothing whatever to do with Sky Sports 5??

Lol, I know, my fault. :whistle:

My Sky Sports 5 just stopped working today, after having worked without activation for several months.
I activated it online this evening - very reluctantly. The "online chat" agent assured me that it would not start a new 12 month contract.
Anyway, it switched my Sky Sports 5 back on immediately ... no overnight wait. So I shall hope for the best.

Does anyone have a definitive answer on the '12 Month' contract renewal with activation of Sky Sports 5. I've seen a few posts on a number of forums saying that it no longer ties you to the 12 months but nothing official from Sky.
Anybody?

Many thanks

Just received an e-mail from Sky confirming no change of contract on activation of Sky Sports 5 and the channel is now up and running again,

Indeed. Which kinda makes this whole campaign pointless.
