ppv price

Post by shambles80 »

Is it me or has the price increased £16.95 with a further £5 surcharge for booking on the day?

I may be wrong but always thought it was sub £15 and a flat rate irrespective of when purchased? Any reason given for this change?

I dunno, I think the surcharge for booking on the day has been going for a while now actually, although not sure how long for.

Pretty certain on the day surcharge has been going as long as PPV. However used to always be £15 now heading North, closer and closer to £20!

Surcharge is only for telephone bookings.

If ppv is going to be the norm then it needs a pricing structure. I would pay a fiver for this, not £17

If the surcharge is the same as the Mayweather/Pacquiao PPV then the £5 surcharge is only if you have to phone up - booking on your remote is the same price regardless of when you book.

Imagine they got a pricing structure for PPV shows though?
We would be paying fivers left right and centre just to see Joshua shadow boxing in the changing room.

Is that really the case? The greedy bastard.

I was going to decide on the day, but that's more likely to make me decide not. Just on principle. :lol:

True but the way it's going anything is fair game at full price. If joshua fights for a European title he will probably be the headline for a ppv card

£14-95 on Virgin. I can't understand any boxing fan not being prepared to pay that, unless they are in dire financial straights. About the same price as for a fourth division football match.

Because we already pay a lot for sky sports each month and Hearn could have this card free to air on sky. Also Sky aired Mayweather v pacquaio four weeks on Sky Box Office.

He can go on and rant about how much the card is going to cost, that is rubbish as he didn't need Gavin v Brook on the card I don't care about that fight.

I've booked it, my brother is a good lad and he likes to watch Kevin !Mitchell, he's not got SKY so it's my big brother treat to him, will probably put a tenner on Kevin for my son and get an Indian in. I don't agree with the PPV but life goes by.
