Surprised at the timing of the increase as they have no footy at the moment.

They just got some of the home nations qualifiers for footy in the Autumn and the Golden League so it was in the post.

Still better than SKY IMO.

Ive sent them the recorded number, but they're not interested! Another months payment down the drain. I say down the drain cos the payment is for setanta in my parents house as I booked it when I was staying there. I have it at home although if it dint have such great boxing coming up I'd cancel.

Well I'd wish they'd announce a time and channel for the Brook vs Jones bill.

Surely Setanta have to notify its customers before it puts up its price? I've not had anything from em

Brook v Jones :- Show on Setanta starts at 8pm

First up is Chisora v Sexton
then it's Anthony Small
then Vinny Mitchell
and around 2200 apparently it's Brook v Jones

Think if you're going down it's a 1800 start with Eddis Cocoran up first.

Mine was sent via e-mail.

Might be worth checking your junk mail etc.

Gets better they've now said it shouldve been sent to sunderland, but i sent it when they were in the process of moving.

chambers - did you get a flyer saying whats on in the future? it was at the bottom of that, fairly small print. I had one ten days ago, my old deers had it yesterday. Theyre being sent in chunks.

I've been paying 15 quid a month for nearly a year now. Must sort that out.

Got a letter through yesterday. They have England, Scotland, Wales and NI away qualifiers so can't really complain.

One price increase now but how many more will come after? SKY have always done this type of thing. I seem to remember when SKY was first installed in our house it was (for arguments sake) say £36 per month and then over the space of a few years you suddenly realise it's now £54 per month you're paying.

Setanta i imagine will be the same. See in a couple of years, with inflation thrown in, i can see us paying around £20 a month for their stuff, due to gradual price rises. They keep on buying up new stuff all the time and have to subsidise it in the classic format. Charge the current subscribers more money!!
