That's good news, however, their website says differently:

https://www.eircom.net/tv/channels

.

There's more detail at
https://www.eircom.net/tv/?pageversion=full

RTÉ One HD, RTÉ Two HD and TG4 HD are available free of charge to all customers able to receive HD channels.

I am able to receive HD channels & have no RTE OR TG4 HD variants available on my evision box.

Is it recording just one episode of Walking dead or every repeat

kooga

single episode which is strange as when true blood was on fox it taped each episode plus repeats.

Me too.

Does it start straight away or is it for a calendar month?

Are there any catches to this offer? What notice do you have to give to cancel?

kooga

got no text today................however I did avail of the one month free sky sports in august, there is no catch just note the day you rang up for example today is the 23/10/14 and ring back before the 23/11/14.

just watch out that the sky sports is not added to your bill amount they did it to me rang them and got the amount credited.

Haven't ordered it yet but i'd imagine the deal will run for a week and the channels will be for 30 days. You would then have to cancel it the day before it expires to avoid being charged.

I forgot to cancel BT sports for 2 months :eek: and when I explained it too them they actually refunded me all the money. Was very pleased. Very impressive service I must say.

Did anyone sign up for this deal yet?

I was offered sky sports free for 2 months along with sky movies.
Couldn't believe it. Great deal.

I had to ring 3 times to get it cancelled, they kept charging me but eventually they gave me back the money. Def keep an eye on your bill

kooga

had it in august on a free 1 month offer

Mantis Toboggan

On Sky sports I'm hearing a voice over ie. a commentary on the shows that aren't live. Very annoying. Anyone have this?

kooga

got an email last night sky movies available free for a month.

laraghrider

Automatically or you have to call and arrange it?

Mantis Toboggan

I got an email also but it's sign up to sky movies and get one month free offer!

I'm already on free sky sports and movies so unfortunately not much good to me.

Ehh, as you put it, they did with me even though I was "a lucky customer" and picked for a free trial.

I've rang up loads of times about different offers. Never anything about having to sign a new contract. You don't have to sign up for a new contract if you don't want to.

kooga

me neither.

but i always clarify it with them

I clarified it with them too but found out when "my eircom" finally got up and running that Eircom had put me on a new contract from the day they rang offering me a free trial of eVision.
