We're currently have our tv, broadband and phone with Sky, mainly because my partner was keen to see the football that was on Sky but not on the other channels, but now it seems BT has some of those matches instead so we're looking to change. Does anyone know what the best 'packages' are which include Premier league and champions league matches? We can't get Virgin where we live as there are no cables in our particular area of SE22.We'd like to get rid of Sky -

What do other sports fans recommend?

BT only have one match every weekend, usually the early kick off on Saturday (12:30). So if he's well in to his footy, keep Sky!


And having been driven to the point of a breakdown by BT Customer Services recently, I'd not recommend them to anyone!


Although their infinity broadband is good, I'll give them that.

I have BT Sports on BT Vision which indeed has 1 game a week, normally the lunchtime game on a Saturday. Then for an extra monthly payment I get Sky Sports 1 and 2, also through the BT Vision box. As I'm only really interested in football and cricket this works fine for me as I don't end up paying even more for "Lifestyle" channels on Sky that I will never watch. If you are into golf then its of less use as they are all on Sky Sports 3, and not available via BT Vision (same with F1 I guess).


All in all though, the costs of each service are not extremely different, and the pure grief of having to deal with 2 sets of customer service departments has stopped me from even considering a switch.

    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
