They go on to say that it's "good news for those without Sky", so i'm speculating that if it isn't Freeview, they may have meant Virgin Media. In addition, the 15th is a Tuesday- VM usually add channels on Tuesday & Thursday mornings. They say "around" the 15th- launch dates are pretty fixed with Sky- but with VM start dates are often more vague.
Of course, it may simply mean that they have had their nuckles rapped by Freeview for announcing the news prematurely!

I can't see that Freesat would be too concerned about them revealing that they are the new platform but it would make sense to be on there if they are transmitting by satellite anyway. Otherwise, it looks like a service that would fit better on one of the new more budget TV platforms like EE TV, Amazon Fire and TalkTalk as oppose to VM.
