Yes- each game (highlights) will appear overnight.
No- no red button service.

Meaning?


Ok, I get the no red button thing (hey, it's expected)...but you reckon the highlights will appear overnight....not sure what you mean!

Sorry if I've missed something, but could you elaborate?

"To choose their game, Sky Sports viewers simply press the red button on their Sky digital remote during the Match Choice and launch †˜Sky Sports Activeââ‚Ã⠀šÃ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢ to see an on-screen menu of matches. The number or †˜scrollÃƒÆ’Ã†â€™Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â¢ÃƒÆ ’¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€Å ¾Ã‚¢ and †˜selectÃƒÆ’Ã†â€™Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â¢ÃƒÆ ’¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€Å ¾Ã‚¢ keys are used to choose a match or switch between matches. Viewers who do not use the interactive service - or do not have Sky digital - will see 50 minutes of highlights from one given match. (*emphasis mine)

"Saturday nightââ‚ƚ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s broadcast of Football First will be followed by a series of repeats of the Match Choice element, shown four times into the night and again at 6am and 7.30am on Sunday. During each showing Sky Sports viewers can select a different match from the full choice, via the interactive menu. "

The last bit is a tad confusing....for me...:rolleyes:

Re: 2004/2005 Premiership Season Offer
 

okay, maybe we'll have to wait and see.

There are 8 games on Saturday, if we ignore Prem Plus coverage (for arguments sake) 1 match delayed coverage at 20.25 and then 6 hours of 7 50min games....it seems to work.

I'm basically intrigued as I plan to move to SKY if I can't get to see the 'Pool play every week.....!

Re: 2004/2005 Premiership Season Offer
 

well wat can you say, I called in on behalf of my father to get added on my services. im not rich and can no way offord 50 pound month extra. what are ntl thinking? I know they dont control the services however they do control the payment method and I would expect they have allready purchased the services. If it was me I would try to bring people on board in spite of sky trying to help people with payments.

i wonder if they are thinking. all i hope is they fall flat on there face this year, it may teach them a lesson for next year. i spend over 100pm with various services, I dont expect prefencial treatment however I like everyone dont expect to be treated like crap in the process!!! this just pushes me more into my decision for sky services!


sorry about the length blowing off steam after a long pointess connversation with cable - wow big surprise!

Re: 2004/2005 Premiership Season Offer
 

Same boat as me leeswin. You'd think they would make the effort and accomodate customers who are getting abit of a shock with the total change in policy.

Re: 2004/2005 Premiership Season Offer
 

I actually wonder if NTL is making any profit on PremPlus this year. I get the feeling that they have just matched Sky's offer to keep people from jumping ship but are doing so on a zero profit basis. If that is the case then NTL would not care how many people cannot afford a one off £50 as it would make no difference to their profits either way.

Re: 2004/2005 Premiership Season Offer
 

Bob ?? I can understand what you are saying and to an extent I agree with what you are sayin. However if they loose customers because of this (and sky) surely all that revenue could have been saved with 5 more mins of thought and poss speaking with customers.

Next year when sky do the same again and expect all that money in one go they may have more customers joining because they know it will be easier to offord.

Re: 2004/2005 Premiership Season Offer
 

Got my "August" bill yesterday. I have been charged £5 for Prem Plus for the period 4 - 6 August and another £5 for Prem Plus for the period 7 August - 6 September! They are taking the money on a monthly basis; my only question now is why am I being charged for a 2 day period, 10 days before the season started? A call to CS will no doubt tell me that the 1st £5 was for August and the second £5 is for September, as I am paying in advance! Perhaps they will also be able to let me know when my BB will be back on line! 11 days of Spam to go through (so far! and I cannot check webmail through the PC's at work!) :dozey:

Re: 2004/2005 Premiership Season Offer
 

Hi All,
Well my bill came in with the £50 charged all in one go. I phoned CS straight away as I had been told I would be charged monthly buy the rep I ordered premplus from, CS told me that the terms/conditions had been changed and Ive gotta pay the full amount now. Funny way to run things really, not very customer friendly really :(
