Cancelling Sky TV

[Nellies left peg]

Can't believe fans of all the non Red cartel clubs still pay into Sly sports.
They have no interest in any teams other than their cash cows.
Got out of it years ago

They employ Spitty and GNIAC , it tells you all you need to know when they commentate on their own team’s game

I’m not attending matches at present so it’s how I watch City.

24 quid a month broadband and 50 a year for iptv gets me anything i want to watch and i still find myself watching wheeler fucking dealers..

I bet you fast forward through slimy Brewers ripping off section at the beginning.

It’s the rumours that stream providers are linked to organised crime that doesn’t sit with me. I know Murdoch ain’t much better, though.

Now, perhaps these rumours are started by the TV companies themselves, I guess that could be the truth, but to me it does seem very likely that there would be some pretty nasty people involved as it’s not that difficult to do. I do at least know my money has been spent legitimately.

That doesn’t mean I don’t mind people using iptv, as people doing so keeps the official retail prices down as otherwise they’d charge what they wanted.

Hmmm... I'm told a Firestick can be modified to allow it to access otherwise paid for content. Would you (or anyone else) be good enough to offer some advice as to how I'd do this?
In short, I don't wish to put any of my hard-earned in Sky's coffers.

There's ways without paying into them

Does he still cave in and sell the motors for a lot less than he could to the first fucker that shows an interest?

seems to do alright but i don't take that much notice

 

[stonerblue]

I’m sure Edd did at least a series (maybe more than one) in the States though.

He did.

I told the wife he (Ed) had died of cancer after reading it on here. Was 12 month later that i found out he didn't..

Just noticed that my package went from £71 to £96. No warning given. Apparently if you're not a broadband customer as well it is down to the customer to ensure they know when the contract is ending and try to do something about the impending and inevitable price rise.

After 45 minutes on the phone, I have managed to renew at £73 for a new contract. Personally I would be tempted to bin it as we also have IPTV, but my Mrs likes the ability to just press series record, and I do like the ability to live pause a match or have it recording in order to catch up with it later. I suppose just over £2 per day ain't too bad though. Oh' I also got them to refund the one month increase from £71 to £96.

I have moved entirely to fire stick. You can catch up with just about anything and stream these days. City+ does full match reruns it’s worth paying for some of the ad free versions of apps but you can reduce your monthly costs by a great deal. Sky are shisters.

We're told that about any black market activity, but i'd say the murdoch empire are the biggest organised crime gang of the lot.
I pay my iptv to a lad i know and he's a hard working family man that's never been complicit in starting wars, bribing governments or getting the great British public to vote for the tories or brexit.

If he’s the source of the stream then fair enough but I guess he’s not (most originate from outside of the UK to avoid UK law) and he’s probably picking it up from someone else who does likewise and so on.

I take a small victory in illegally streaming Sky and BT sport.

Not giving those cunts a penny of my hard earned.

Update for anyone looking to cancel Sky.

I called today to cancel my subscription, my price is currently £89.00 per mth.

The guy who was really nice to be honest, he put my 31 day cancellation through and said “i’m supposed to try and get you to stay but even with a discount of X,Y and Z i still wouldn’t be able to get nearer the price your on”
God knows what they were going to be charging me in the future. Easier than i thought ;-)

Fuck you Neville & Caragher

I cancelled around 3 months ago. Got 3 loaded firesticks for me and others. Shithot.

8m not sure mate. Other half deals with it. I never answer my door or phone if i don't know who it is or expecting a call from someone.

 

[Nethermoor]

We cancelled and rejoined as new customers and went from £119 to £70 per month. Same TV, better broadband. Also includes sky sports but not BT

 

[BigJoe#1]

Is it illegal to stream football into your home if Sky are not the actual broadcaster... i.e Bein Sports or any of the multiple other broadcasters/provider?

I mean, if its out there and can be seen through internet streams then how can you be breaking the law? All you're doing is accessing something that is readily broadcast and available... aren't you?
