General : bundle packages

[Gavin78]

With the current prices increases I've looked at the bundles and I'm a bit confused by them.

Is it my understanding now that unless you are on the £90 package you don't get the kids channels anymore?

I'm well out of contract on the XL tv package, talk weekends and 350meg BB but this BB package is the 1 month contract one upgraded from 200meg.

I will be paying £88 a month but I don't want the £90 package but I have a 5 year old so want the kids channels?

Call them up - they will usually be helpful

The replacement equivalent for XL is Maxit and it doesn't have the Pay TV kids channels, they are now in a separate pack for £5 a month, but it does have the Free-To-Air kids channels like CBeebies HD, CBBC HD, CITV, Pop and Tiny Pop.

The channel guide is here to show you what is in you existing pack and the new replacement packs. All the purple shaded packs are unavailable, though you can can remain out of contract and stay on XL you can't if you go on a new contract.

At the bottom of this webpage you will find a link to PDF versions of the list AND a PDF of the Personal Pick packages if you would rather downgrade to Mixit and add Personal Pick packs. You wont get the the BT Sport channels without Maxit though and some HD channels are only on Maxit.
