I've got Virgin and I subscribe to Sky Sports but I don't get BT Sport thrown in. How come you guys get it as part of your package?

My Virgin went down yesterday morning. (Oooh missus.) It was still down on the evening, so no internet of Virgin telly. I rang the company, and they said not back until 6.40pm tomorrow, problem in my area.

fornicating amateurish company. If I was allowed Sky Dishes outside my flat, I'd have gone for that.

It doesn't help when Eddie sells half to secondary agents, the fighters take a few thousand and the independent touts get stuck in.

I'll have to check mate, we have had it for years and BT Sports just 'appeared'. I might have got a letter in the post explaining why but I don't remember seeing anything to be honest

If it's the same as last time I spoke to Virgin, you have to have the full or "XL" package to get BT sports free. Sky Sports is irrelevant as it's an add-on package like Sky Movies. You have to have the highest bracket of regular TV i.e. all the entertainment/documentary/music channels as apposed to the free-view level package or the one in-between.

I've seriously considered that but I just like too many of Hearn's boxers so unfortunately I opted to keep it.
