It's Sky Sports that is going up by £1.50, not TV XL

Re: Price increase XL

ok mine just said that my XL package was going up due to sky putting up the sport/movies but we are nit picking on what i said really, if you on the xl package then you have sports etc so either way its going up regardless of how i described it :)

You do realise Sky set the wholesale prices right? I really hope BT sports takes of and greedy Sky get the kicking they deserve.

Given that Small World are offering Sky Sports at a loss to compensate for the loss of ESPN, I think it's fair to say that Virgin probably have some control over what they pass on to customers. In addition, it was Bt who pushed the price of Premier League football up. Had Sky not beaten them in that auction we wouldn't have ended up with Bt Sport in the xl package.

It's the whole stupid system, motivated by greed, that put the price up.
