Sky Sports 5 only doesn't need contracting again

So, Sky Sports 5 is now live. It's advertised everywhere as a free addition to sky sports users already however which ever link you click through on, it shows a line like '12 month contract unless it's x in which case it's 18 months'. This of course instantly makes you think you are going to get tied into another 12 months of sky subscription payments so I wanted to get this classified by the sky help team on Twitter (@skyhelpteam) which I eventually did.

So the question of whether you get contracted to another 12 months if you take Sky Sports 5 is now finally answered properly!

If you only add Sky Sports 5 and NOT the offer of the sky broadband / phone service then you are free to upgrade and at no new
renewal of contract




Happy days! Got confirmation of this via our Twitter conversation and that can be seen here:

Now, go order it via your account upgrade Upgrade page and you can watch lots of European league football  at no additional cost and no renewal of contract. Clearly if you do take up the broadband offer then you will start a new contract with Sky.

Does it cost to go from a SIM to a microSim? urm.... No.

[caption id="attachment_434" align="aligncenter" width="135"] A micro sim from 3UK[/caption] Recently in our Sony Ericsson Test Lab, the question popped up about micro SIMs. This came about because of the release of the Sony Xperia S, a cracking new phone for 2012 under the Sony only brand, check out the Sony Xperia S Demo here: [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1rPXqd6V30&w=560&h=315] Anyway, no-one really had a definitive answer as to, if you swapped to this new handset or indeed any of the other handsets which requires a microSIM, do you need to keep in mind a fee for a new SIM card too? Well, I thought I'd just ask so using social media I posted the following question: @OrangeHelpers if a customer wants to go from sim to micro sim, do you charge them? @O2 if a customer wants to go from sim to micro sim, do you charge them? @ThreeUKSupport if a customer wants to go from Sim to micro sim, do you charge them?

Something to think about other than the Euro failure! If you were already subscribed to my calendar for the previous seasons, you need to do absolutely nothing :D Not only did we stay safe last season but we were 90 mins of hitting the Premiership.

Kicking off agasint recently relegated Villa and then Norwich is a challenging first month, but no matter where you look in the season theres focus we need to maintain to hit the prem.
