You'll get Sky sports for 10 months at no extra cost if you pay the £150 in advance after that you would then either have to cancel SS for the 2 months the footy is off or pay the full price

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
Im currently on VIP and I am debating dropping to the Big Kahuna and paying up front for Sports. I am happy to drop the telco package and lose movies, should save me a fortune!

Ah cheers. Sounds a bit of an effort having to call up and pay all that at once as nice as it sounds.
Anyone have any news on the app? it says we can watch sky sports on skysports.com how will we be able to sign in as we dont have a sky ID? If i've given my laptop permission to watch sky sports would i need to remove permissions for my laptop in order to watch sky sports on my iphone?? So many questions!

Questions indeed, currently weighing up the best option, drop from VIP and lose movies etc?? need to sit and work out the savings and whether it is worth losing movies and telco for what you actually save.
Am I right in thinking in sports is discounted in the top package anyhow?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
So sports season ticket questions:
1) why only 2 SS HD channels? Is that just before the others go live or is that all you get?
2) do you have to have one of the new big bundles?
3) will it automatically cancel at the end or will you go straight on to pay monthly SS?
Answers on a postcard...

1) At the time of posting they could only offer the 2 HD channels, I'm sure that will update tomorrow. By the way, you still need to pay the extra £7.00 per month for HD, the £150.00 just covers the SD collection.
2) They told me I could have it with my existing 'Collection' so presumably anyone can, not only those on the new bundles.
3) Don't know to be honest but I would anticipate it will be similar to the line rental saver where they add SS to you monthly bill but it comes up as £0 during the period you've paid in advance. At the end it will stay on and revert to normal charges.

Base on info I have seen both Sky Sports News HD and Sky News HD are not set to launch until early 2015.
