    Hi guys,

    UPC price hike for me means 13 euro increase and the service is terrible so I've just about had enough.

    When it comes to alternatives, I'm looking @ just getting saorview & freesat. But is there an option to add sports channels like sky and BT to this at an additional charge?

    No, is the short answer.

    You can get a Now TV box which gives you access to Sky through the Internet, if that's any use?

    If you erect a satellite dish pointed at Astra (for Freesat) you can add Setanta (including BT) if you can get yourself hold of a second hand Sky box on eBay or such like - Setanta will supply a viewing card.

    There is no way to get Sky Sports without subscription to a basic pay TV package of some sort though.
