Have you changed/cancelled your account since ESPN closing?
Hi, I'm just interested in whether people have changed their package, done nothing or cancelled service(s) with VM since their failure to provide BT Sports as a replacement for ESPN.

I'm staying the same, not missing ESPN as we never watched it

The OP actually asked what people were doing, not what they would hypothetically do....
You will have skewed the results....

Re: Have you changed/cancelled your account since ESPN closing?
I'll give it until October to see what (if anything) happens with new channels by then. Various sports I like to watch in HD will be finishing their seasons about then, so if nothing positive has happened I will downgrade.

Have no intention of changing - BT Sports would be a plus but not a game changer

Re: Have you changed/cancelled your account since ESPN closing?
I haven't yet, so haven't voted, but I am considering down grading to l now that ESPN has gone and loads of xl channels have moved down from xl. I don't really want Bt sports anyway so I think this is probably what I'll do, just have to convince the wife.

Re: Have you changed/cancelled your account since ESPN closing?
I'm staying on same package as it about the HD for me. If they tied in the £7 hd charge for sky premium with other hd channels then I would evaluate my package accordingly.

Re: Have you changed/cancelled your account since ESPN closing?
I've stayed on the XL package. I would have been out of contract July 31st so renewed with a £15 discount for a year and half price Sky sports for 6 months. To me that makes up for not currently having BT Sports. Everyone has their own opinions on what's going on at the moment, and will have different views on what's acceptable or not regarding the price we pay after we've lost some channels. We're happy with what we got and will be even happier if BT Sports arrives on Virgin...

Don't they have any polls on the Sky side you can go and play with, rather than screwing with what is obviously a VM users poll?
