    To be honest with you I like watching the up and coming fighters on Friday fight night with a few cans of larger.

    But is it worth the £40 I pay a month for sky.

    Dont think so.

    Also sky have the odd top fight from America which will be a pisser if i miss.

    If the worse comes to the worse I will just resubscribe.

    holy crap I had no idea it was that expensive is that like an exclusive Sky thing with extra channels or is that how much everyone pays for it?
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    its about 48 GBP a month i am cancelling the movie channel as we have seen most of them that they are showing, then we pay 10.99 for Setanta because of the racing channel and the boxing.

    10.99 for Setanta ?!? I am paying 12.99, how you manage that ?


    I am paying £48 for SKY, £13 for Setanta and £30 for phoneline and broadband.

    Given that any big fight is now on Sky Box Office anyway and £17.95 they have got us by the short and curlies !

    I really should get rid of of one but don't like to miss anything and with the football and boxing now spread over both what can you do ?!?

    Same here . Ive got sky broadband, Setanta and the sports package . A month costs me £55 but if theres a ppv ( which there usually is ) I end up paying around £70 per month the same as my car insurance.

    Im paying £10.99 for Setanta though. They wont tell you youre on a premium rate mate. You need to call them. I did and said I wanted the cheaper rate they were advertising to new subscribers and they switched it for me.

    I stopped my Sky March 2008 after the Margarito v Cintron fight, also got to see Romanov KO Thaxton. I do not mind missing the domestic fights, I would have liked to see Dean Francis and Kell Brooks but it costs too much. The international fights missed were Hatton fights and ODH fights and the Moseley v Mayorga. Compare that to Setanta's list of fights for £10 (now £10.99) Sky is a rip off especially charging for Amir Khan fights (£14.99).

    To the US posters would you prefer watching free fights at 4 or 5 am or paying the dollars to watch them at a more reasonable hour?
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I phoned up setanta yesterday and said I wanted to cancel(bluff) and they dropped the price to £9.99 a month from £12.99 but you got to stay witht them for a year which I would anyway.

    Save 30 odd quid a year.

    well done mate, always found sky to be good to deal with. i blagged things off them in the past & had price drops. when new customers could have a free sky+ box i rang up as an excisting customer & kicked off got a free sky+ box, cant be bad.
