    Hi Niall, I have a Sky HD box which is used to receive FTA channels. Can I get the Setanta offer on this?

    Hi Molly, you can subscribe as long as you can provide a 9 digit Sky viewing card number.

    Yeh was considering signing up to the setanta pack for premier league and UFC, this would have been an excellent opportunity for me to try out the service but unfortunately Setanta decided not to include UPC customers, I literally had the numbers dialed into my phone before I started to read the posts. Big let down for christmas


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,694 ✭✭✭An Riabhach


    Just done it-thanks Rooy and thanks Niall.

    Just one question to Niall-in order to cancel on December 30th,will your call centres be in operation on that day,and what time?

    Siúl leat, siúl leat, le dóchas i do chroí, is ní shiúlfaidh tú i d'aonar go deo.



  • Registered Users Posts: 371 ✭✭mikehunts


    Yes, the call centre will open from 9.30am to 6pm on December 31st.

    Thanks,

    Niall

    This €1 offer for a month is only open to the satellite/SKY base.

    UPC recently ran a great offer that allowed prospective Setanta subscribers to sign up and receive August & September for free. Hopefully you availed of that great offer.

    No worries. Simply cancel one of your subscriptions before Dec 31st to ensure you are not billed €19.99 x 2 per month.

    Thanks,

    Niall

    In fairness I don't think it's up to him to make public business decisions by either Setanta or UPC.

    It's not, it sucks. Also they did offer this:
    UPC recently ran a great offer that allowed prospective Setanta subscribers to sign up and receive August & September for free. Hopefully you availed of that great offer.

    It is badly advertised though, Independent has an advertisement that doesn't mention it's Sky only, and the website looks like it's suggesting it applies to more than Sky as well.

    Have you an old one lying around? You can use that,then simply ring them again to transfer to the new card when it arrives,simples.

    I have the old one as the account on that one is not closed till the 8th.

    If I ring up on the 30th how long till they turn off. I don't want to pay for a full month after.http://touch.boards.ie/thread/2057096519/1


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 180 ✭✭eoz


    Just signed up to this deal. It's a great deal. I recently cancelled my sky sports subscription and if I'm impressed by the end of the month I'll be sticking with it. Sky sports is a rip off at €35 a month.

    So the rep here says,simply cancel at the end of the month.I had BT/Setanta paired to one card & got a new one so I simply rang them to transfer the sub to my new card.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,137 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,924 ✭✭✭Soarer


    Says its not available on multiroom, but surely you can sign up for €1 twice, once for each box? Each box has its own viewing card number, and that's what they look for when registering.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,319 ✭✭✭NATLOR

    The offer only applies to 1 satellite box.

    However you can subscribe to multi-room for an extra €2.99 per month per additional box. This must be done by phoning our call centre on 0818203040

    When signing up, simply provide the viewing card number for the box you wish to add the Setanta Pack to.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 241 ✭✭ispini1984

    do you need sky sports to avail of this or just sky?

    That's the thing. My two boxes have different viewing card numbers. Are they not considered as 2 satellite boxes?
