To start with we have lost several channels that have never been replaced and our prices have risen in the process.

Was just about to post that :)

To be fair, the majority of channels removed have been +1 channels which have been replaced with much better channels eg. Animal Planet +1 in favour of Quest and History +1 in favour of Military History. And some channels such as Men and Motors have been closed on all digital platforms.

Do those channels exist for anyone or did Sky get rid of them?

The fact is our bills are rising all the time and we are getting less for it.

That's not an answer to my question. The channels you mention are no longer available to ANYONE because Sky cancelled them.

If you are unhappy that your bills are increasing and you perceive that you are getting less for your money then you have an option. CANCEL. GO ELSEWHERE.

We haven't had a price increase on XL for over 2 years. You are still up on channels after Sky closed Channel 1 etc.. :)

Oh dear, DF. You've let me down so badly by providing incorrect information.

The most recent tranche of increases did indeed increase the price of TV XL by £1.
