I paid around £24 for the box and 3 months of the entertainment pack (which has had a month added on due to the above issues)

I'll be cancelling the now TV entertainment pack when Game of Thrones finishes, not because of the level of service but more because there's nothing else that I fancy watching.

Yes it would be more convenient to have Atlantic on VM but NowTV is a more than acceptable compromise in my view.
I think now that I would be happy to have programmes for Sky Atlantic on demand/streamed. We have already missed countless series of Games of Thrones and Mad Men to name but two, and so the value in getting SA as a linear channel has faded for me.

thirty quid for a box and six months seemed a good deal to me....
It's pretty extortionate if you are just getting it for SA when the channel is in Sky Basics on Sky. I'm not paying for it.
