The others were all for red button services, the rumour is that the one remaining channel being tested is for AMC and not BT Sport.

I think one might of been a test for AMC Global, MB i think mentioned one called "BT EXTRA" whilst there was 6 other tests named bt sport extra.

Re: £3 TV increase but BT Sport Europe is "free"
Decided to downgrade to L TV from XL TV to avoid increase and a cheaper package anyway if you are not bothered about the sport channels.
Just one thing to watch if anybody else does this. Just check your existing recordings since if you have any on the HD channels you're losing and you're not watched, you will be denied access once you've downgraded. So watch them before you go ahead!
I've just had to ask for another 2 weeks access to XL TV to watch 6 episodes of a series I've recorded from Sky 1 HD which I am now recording on Sky 1 SD going forward. VM Retentions did the change giving me 2 weeks access no problem, so thanks to them for doing that!

That only applies to Sky-owned channels.

Yes agree, should have been clearer. Sky channels only.

Nice to see the BT Sport Europe logos and score at the top of the screen!!!! Can they do that on prem league matches now? Then it'd be a serious channel to watch.

Seriously over rated.
There is barely anything on it I would watch, and of those I would, they are on other channels as well anyway (Pick & Sky 1).
