Help with Sky-PayperView

I was wondering if i could order the Pay-per-View boxing on sky box office on my NTL service? I know you have to initialise you card before you can order anything from pay-per-view but i just didnt know whether this was a Sky only show?

Any help would be much appreciated

NTL will be showing this event but only on Digital as far as I know. It can be brought from 9am on the day via On demand

Is it not the case any more, that if you order it on the day then it becomes more expensive than ordering in advance?

On Sky yes, it is more expensive on the day, but on NTL it very reasonable from previous times I remember. It's normally £3-4 lower than Sky's on the day price.

Re: Help with Sky-PayperView

Thanks people, i think it will be cheaper becuase it only comes on at 2am and i have paid £14 for boxing before on Sky that started at 8pm.

Does anyone know anything about initialising your viewing card? I tried to get the pay-per-view football the other day but it said i needed to ring CS up to intitialise my card. I couldnt do it at this time because it was a Sunday any they were closed. Has anyone else had to do this?

Probably means that your IPPV PIN hasn't been setup. Just give them a call and ask to be setup, shouldn't take long.

Hi Jon,
I can take a look at your account if you are in the Midlands area (Nottingham/Leicester/Grimsby), drop me a PM if required. I's sure a Mod will vouch for me if needs be!
