I think they did sell it but still hold a 20% stake

Doesn't Stelling do an advert for Sybet? I rest my case - lol

If you phone up to cancel they offer you £10 pm for 4 months or £15 pm for 6 months. No tie in reverts to full price unless you phone up to cancel again.

I was right about the 20% stake when I cancelled my Sky Subscription:

Sky said it would receive about £425m in cash and 7.6 million newly issued shares, or approximately 3% of The Stars Group, on completion of the deal, worth approximately £145m.

It added that it would use the proceeds to reduce debt and "reinvest in further growth opportunities".

The company's chief executive, Jeremy Darroch, said: "We are proud of what we have achieved from a standing start with Sky Betting & Gaming, crystallising over £1bn in value for shareholders.

"The ability to create innovative products and successfully challenge for share in completely new markets has become a pattern at Sky and gives us the continued confidence to open up new opportunities and invest for future growth."
