Can you only get Sky Sports 5

I would have thought so Howdi.

Let me investigate further.

No you don't have to take the broadband. You can activate it through the red button but that didn't work on my box. They will make it as hard as they can to activate it without phoning them so they can give you a hard sell.

You can go through this link. You should see a button saying something like sky sports 5 on/off. You can do it that way apparently.

^^^ top man. xx

Agree with the point about hard sell, sky are something else.

Can't see it there treble????

It was on my screen, under add more channels.

If not, just phone them. I don't know everything has to be so difficult with them.

Thanks for the link treble - I was trying to activate it yesterday and gave up! Just followed your link and done it (hopefully). I had to go all the way through the checkout process though.....

Howdi, after signing in it was under "add more channels" as treble says.

got ya thanks

ta mucho

Howdi you can still sign up for the 2 years free .If you are happy to take out a new 18 months on the broadband/line rental then your current offer can be cancelled and replaced by the 2 years.

Anyone with Sky Sports can add Sports 5 . Sky could easily just switch it on for all sports customers at once . They have this 'activation' set up so that people who get confused will phone in and speak to someone who will try and sell them broadband.

Took the offer as I'm already with Sky for the full package. I can't get rid of the Activate red button.

Spent 15 minutes on the phone and they couldn't remove it. Said they would ring me back. That was last Friday I've heard hee haw.

someone should pay Murdoch back by spangling his wife.

Can Virgin customers get it?

khyber kim- was having the same problem with the 'activate ss5' button popping up after every ad break. Found this on twitter and problem solved.
