    As long as you have a Sky box and card you can get Setanta you do not need any Sky package to get it.

    If you don't have a card Setanta will send you out one as far as I know.

    The BT channels are blocked for me tonight .

    Setanta put me on the 9.99 deal a few weeks ago and the channels have been working fine until tonight.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 336 ✭✭icjzfmq7ewon1t


    31st

    Thanks


  • Registered Users Posts: 148 ✭✭varberg


    Signed up in december for a euro after seeing it here, then rang to cancel the other day, they got back to me and offered 2 months for 12.99 a month. i accepted it. have to remember to call then to get new deal they said.


  • Registered Users Posts: 174 ✭✭kranbo


    Signed up in December for €1 and overlooked cancelling before the end of the month. I was charged €20 for Jan so rang today to cancel. The agent asked why I was cancelling and I told her I couldn't afford it,

    She the offered €10 per month Feb - April which I accepted and advised I should cancel before the end of March.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,215 ✭✭✭cargo


    Hi folks, does anyone know if it's per calendar month or 30 days from sign-up? i.e. If I signed up today and got this BA would it cost 9.99 for the next 3 days to 1st Feb or would the first 9.99 pay through until 28/2/14?

    Lastly whats the best telephone number for getting a deal or is it just the general 0818 20 30 40 number from the website? Has anyone found a 01 number or a way to get through from the 01 press number +353 (1) 474 8000 listed?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,273 ✭✭✭EuskalHerria


    Setanta were offering a deal for anyone who added them on snapchat.

    If you use the code 'goal' when signing up, you get half price for 3 months.

    I asked this from a rep earlier, according to them it's a 30 day rolling contract from sign up.

    Anyone know if any offers available for setanta customers through UPC? Phoned them there but priced @€;16 month with no offers.

    Remember signing up this time last year for Gaa national league season with great offers available through an post.

    Annoying to see such great offers but only available for Sky customers !!!!


  • Site Banned Posts: 880 ✭✭✭whiteshorts


    UPC didn't get any offers from Setanta according to UPC rep.
    She said the offers were only for offered to SKY Customers.

    Just signed up for 9.99 a month for the next 3 months. So I'm set till the 29 of April. The lady on the phone said to ring on or before the 29 of march if I want to cancel or to see if there are any other offers available


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,664 ✭✭✭makeorbrake


    Just signed up and said mate just subbed with them for €9.99/month for first 3 - would they match it - she agreed to this but said I still had to pay the connection charge.

    I just went along with this - is that what the rest of you have or did you manage to get setup without this charge?

    They seen you coming ;)

    I havent read of anyone paying this so maybe call back and say you want them to drop it again or you will cancel.

    I got an email from setanta this morning. In the terms and conditions it says anyone looking to pay by direct debit will pay a connection fee.

    Connection fee for what? Ring in and ask what this connection fee is and they will struggle to explain it.

    Yes I know its there in the T & Cs but its a sales gimmick and a bit of leverage on their end. When I was cancelling in the past I used to be told that if I didnt continue the sub for another 3 months unbroken then Id be liable to pay this so called connection fee should I call again at a later date to rejoin.

    Guess what? They would call me then and give me another half price offer and this "connection fee" is never mentioned.

    that's not an engaged tone, that's just what it sounds like.
    wait to you get through next time, if you can't get through it'll cut you off automatically.

    &/or try any combination to get speaking to someone


  • Registered Users Posts: 278 ✭✭VeeEmmy


    Sorry for deleting original message. Didn't realise there was a reply.
    I got through to the queue at least, via the proper number. I was using the number in the T&C.
    Long queue...
    Got through...
    No hassle...
    I'm curious. Why do the T&C's say we have to cancel in writing when we can cancel via phone? I sent formal written notice, but thought I'd better follow up by phone in case the written notice didn't get there in time. Yes, I'm OCD.... :-)


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,913 ✭✭✭✭muffler


    she said the best she could do for those two months was 12.99e.
    Is that per month or the total for 2 months?
