...but if you're not in a minimum contract term then you are free to give 31 days notice to cancel.  (And then resubscribe when you want the channel back)

Just a note - all the content that would have been broadcast on the Sky f1 channel is still available and accessible on-demand.

Indeed, there's nothing new at the moment anyway...

Sky did publish their comments when the Darts started.  There was no F1 to show so they gave you the darts for free. You weren't forced to watch it and any F1 was available On Demand.

Re: F1 channel changing to darts for a month

I'm sorry but I received nothing from Sky regarding the darts takeover & I don't think the On Demand service was available from day 1. As a non lover of darts I thought this was a very arbitrary decision.I contacted Sky on various occasions to complain & eventually received a months credit.My concern is that did anyone else get this & if not why not?

@mottflame being honest i'm a massive F1 fan but changing to darts for 1 month didn't bother me one little bit on demand is/has been available from before it changed to darts and being honest i only watch re-runs if i can't find anything else on TV.

Not everyone would have received  a months credit as not everyone complained and probable most weren't too bothered about the channel showing darts.

It changes back tomorrow in case you don't know

Why would it concern you  whether others get credits from Sky?

Because it would be materially unfair just for me to get a credit.

By that argument, I don't personally see why anyone should have got a credit - but the fact you did is between you & Sky.

 

Consider yourself lucky.
