Sky On-demand Sky Movies and Sky sports

    I have a sky+ HD box with HD suscription with sky but no movies or sports subscription.

    In the Parental controls I have it set so that any spend at all requires the pin to be entered so no one downloads 100 quid worth of stuff without realising.

    But still when I go to On demand > Movies there are a load of movies there that don't seem to need to be paid for? Same goes for the sports stuff, its all sky sports but again no spend notice when I click i (info).

    When I go along the menu into Sky store and I click on a movie in the bottom left of the info bar it says pay per view & price.

    Any ideas, can we watch all these movies for free and the sports too?

    Hmm ok but it didn't ask for a pin number and a sky sports F1 special has been recorded without any pin number. The listing shows as sky sports 1.

    I just dread ringing sky about anything, I'll do a bit more investigating.

    You dont need a spend notice as there is no charge for on demand, appart from the SKY store. But even if you download them to your box you wont be able to view them because your sub does not include them. Hope this helps - think it's correct.
