Yeah, I'm not sure how it works.
Will it only be available to those who pay separately for them?
I'm not sure how it will work for those on VIP or XL TV packages

Do you have to apply for the BT Sports credit separately? My 'Oomph' is only showing a credit for Sky Sports

You could choose either or both from the relevant page, although I’m sure I read somewhere that it originally only gave the option of pausing Sky Sports and was subsequently updated to include both:

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
Yep - originally it was only for Sky. BT was added as an option later.

It should show in my Virgin Media charges by your bill charges since 9th Mar 2020 a credit which then reduces ones next bill when that one gets sent out..

newapollo Do you have a discount on the oomph bundle? If so, have you lost it?
I have a pretty big discount and was wondering whether I would still get it.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
I see hayu is being advertised as a subscription channel add on via Amazon Prime, so it will be still available on Virgin TV.
If I could subscribe to hayu via NowTV or Prime, but still be able to log in to each app I would. As I understand, I have to pay NowTV AND Prime to view on each service?
Such as Shudder, has a Roku app and an add on channel via Prime, I couldn't view the app without subscribing again.

I took out my Oomph package on 28th June last year. It was, and still is discounted to £99.99. The charges for pausing Sky & BT Sports are credit adjustments on the account, not further discounts.
According to staff on the VM Community Forums
Quote:
It doesn't affect any minimum or contractual terms regardless of which package
