No why would they, it's in the T&C's that channel lineups can change.  VM are doing it only for selected customers not all of them.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

Virgin are only offering it to a limited number of customers. Lots of people are asking about it on their forum, VM's response is if you haven't had an email then you can't get it. 

 

Those who have been offered it are having terrible trouble getting it applied properly with bills showing full charges for 'free' TNT.

As I understand it [and I might be wrong.] All sports content from W.B.D. will be taken off Amazon Prime video from February 28th. The non-sport package will still be available on Amazon Prime video but at a reduced  price of £3.99 p a month with ads. If any one knows any different then please let me know.

I currently have TNT Sport through Amazon Prime (special offer). As of yet I've heard nothing of TNT being pulled from Prime........ Unless of course you're referring to Eurosport which isn't being offered as a subscription anymore.

@workwork 

It won't. There is no price reduction for companies removing channels from Skys output. 

I've merged your post into a thread discussing the closure.

Re: How much will my bill go down when I loose Eurosports ?

Whatever the reasons behind it my main reason for paying for Sky is sports particularly snooker. I am now faced with paying £360 a year to continue watching it or do without and consider cancelling Sky for a cheaper sports provider. After 25 years with them the balance is tipping to not being worth the money.

Yeah I guess we vote with our feet and let them sift through the rubble/data

 

Anything else is just shouting into the wind.

British Eurosport

I currently record Live Alpine Skiing on British Eurosport 1/2, to watch when I can later..

With these channels "moving" to Discovery+, and Discovery+ already part of my package, how can I continue to record the action, or the "Highlight" programs.

Thank You

Hi @Kamikazeskier   Discovery+ (not controlled by Sky) is a streaming service, so you cannot record anything. The best you can hope for is it will be available to stream afterwards.

You can watch back on the D+ app, you can also watch delayed live and sport is kept on there for a long time. I have been a week's behind on some of the cycling and I've still been able to catch up.

To be fair W.B.D. is nothing to do with SKY. We can only hope in future years. All of the Cycling sking and snokker is bought up by Sky Netflix or Amazon.
