Ive not had a reply for nearly 2 weeks. Waste of time. The Footy Show was hyping up the Bronco's v St George game & then Sultanta dont show it......

Maybe you should reply

"due to your scheduling times my subscription has been reduced for a temporary period! I can assure you this will be rectified when you resume the sport I paid to see!!"

Still no reply from my email two weeks ago.

Here comes the cancellation.

Ditto.... 11 days now for a "within 5 days response"

Prefer The Sunday Roast, shame it isn't broadcast here.

good luck with that, got cut off four times trying to cancel by phone, so i think i'm just going to cancel the direct debit and send them an email.

I haven't had a reply to my e-mail but I did get a phone call from someone who was doing a satisfaction survey for them, believe me they got slated big time!!!!

footy show on tonight

due to the fact we havent a pot to p*** in

we are unable to show you two lots of NRL

e-mailed them a second time complaining they hadn't responded the first time.

their reply:

Thank you for your e-mail.


Due to programme scheduling, we have had to cut the live NRL games to one per week. We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused, we are hoping to rectify this to two plus games per week from May 2009.

Got it in writing a couple of days ago and the first DD for £6.50 went out of the bank today!

Got a courtesy call today asking how I was enjoying Setanta, when I said I wasn't because the reason I pay £12.99 a month is for the three weekly NRL games and they have been reduced to one the girl said she'd ask her supervisor why, when she returned she said it was because Setanta hadn't got the NRL fixture list so until they get it they will only be showing one game!!!!!!
Anyway she then asked me if I would cancel I told her that I wasn't sure, she then offered me £10.99 for a 6 months contract or £9.99 for a 12 month one which she said I wouldn't want as she new I would be cancelling after the NRL grand final!

£10.99 is obviously better than £12.99 but I'd rather have the three games for the full price.

And whilst you're at it, get them to bring back Southern Television too ....

Erm, where the fook is the Footy Show?

So some amateur football e goes to penalties, we still have to sit through their usual crap.

And now those truly unfunny Morino/Rooney puppets are on.

Not happy.

It's coming on now - free again

Here it is.

A little dig at Super League there whilst talking to Brett Finch

whats happening now with setanta nrl

Three weeks after my contact I'm still waiting for a response from a "5 working days" answer so I've bothered them again with this..

[iI contacted you with a complaint regarding me signing up to yourselves with the promise of 2/3 australian rugby league matches per week (advertised by yourselves) to have had one match per week since i joined. YOUR AUTOMATED EMAIL SAID I WOULD GET A RESPONSE WITHIN 5 DAYS "THREE WEEKS LATER I'VE HEARD NOTHING" This is shoddy at best. I am contacting OFFCOM to see what they think. My next contact with you is cancellation.[/i

I've just had my automated response that says we will contact you within 5 working days...

Anyone got anymore news on this?

I know it's still only 1 game per wkend at the moment but was wondering if anybody had any more details before I cancel my subscription.

Friday games back from May 29th it seems. www.rugbyleagueontv.co.uk Must be waiting for the football to finish although I still don't get why they don't show the Friday games now - because they are showing bugger all else.

i rang up to cancel last night, told em i was unhappy about the reduction on nrl, girl explained very nicely its due to contractual gubbins and various tv companies bidding/fighting for the rights to show(tried not to snort down the phone) gave me some BS about the magners league, politely declined any interest in that and then she offered me 3 months at half price, at which point i can ring and cancel if things aren't back to normal.

Granted, its not the best offer ever but i watch the UFC on occasion and although i was serious about cancelling, i was in two minds as its the lesnar v mir fight in july, but i couldn't justify full whack between now and then.

I can watch that then bin it.


Though the impression she gave me over the nrl games really didn't sound positive at all, there was no "it's changing back, i promise you" attempt at lying to me.

Mark,Consider yourself lucky,I have e-mailed this mob twice,once last year when the same thing was happening (1 game per week)and a month ago,,no reply to either.Don*t like phoning because i*m likely to get the village idiot on the other end of the line but will wait with bated breath to see if they up the coverage,and if they don*t bye bye to them...

The top and bottom of it is that setanta have paid out that much money on Premier league/Fa Cup/ England matches that it is simply running out of cash.
It is refusing to honour its £125 million pound 4 year SPL deal unless they renegotiate.
This is putting a squeeze on NRL,BUNDESLIGA etc
