Another reason to get Freesat .. Sky hikes prices
How much more will you have to pay Sky for your channels from September?
If you have Sky Sports as part of your "mix" your package goes up 24 per year.
If you don't have either Movies or Sports, then your package does up just 12 a year.
The new annual prices are:
Mixes |
Ents |
Movies |
Sports |
S&M |
1 |
204 |
408 |
432 |
516 |

Can Freesat be received in Central Italy? (Perugia - between Rome and Florence).
We do not suscribe to SKY, have a Pace digibox, Astra and Hotbird dishes; so get Skynews, Parliament, Channel 5 and BBC world...
I retired to Italy 2002 and speak very little Italian (let alone understand it!)
Is there any hope for better?

Why are the FREESAT channel numbers such a mess. Why not put all the HD channels together in a logical order similar to FREVIEW.
108 (BBC ONE HD), 109 (BBC TWO HD), 119 (ITVHD), 106 (BBC THREE HD), 107(BBC FOUR HD) and 200 (BBC NEWS HD) are hardly memorable numbers are they.
When will FREESAT be broadcasting DRAMA & REALLY if ever ?

I currently have all sky channels, box sets, movies and all sport for 36.20 per month. 26.20 if I drop movies. This makes it a very good deal. However I checked our recordings and 99% are from free channels. I intend to look at this again in Sept when the 12mths is up. My better half likes good food channel but I'm struggling to find where I can get that without paying virgin or sky.

Steve clifford: For dipping into Sky channels without full subscription, then try Now TV. It will be cheaper, and although apparently you have to be careful about them rolling over your monthly subscription, it might suite.
If you have a smart LG TV, then the app is on the TV, and from this year, most smart Samsungs. Or just buy a Now TV box (a cutdown Roku), which might be as little as about twelve quid with a pass.
Add that to a Humax Freeaat recorder, and your sorted.
