    Same here unfortunately, it seems you have to pre-order the brand new film to get older one for free.

    What's the brand new film?
    We just watched War of the Planet of the Apes and we got another free, not sure which one tbh.

    That’s weird. I selected the new film (War) and it had an option to buy and keep it and Dawn for €0.00. Both ready to send to the sky box straight away

    So did you get Planet of the Apes and Dawn for free?

    No, we've been signed up for a while, we got the new spiderman movie a few months ago too.

    Was it The Amazing Spiderman or Spiderman Homecoming you got?

    There were two offers available the last few months
    Sky VIP Welcome Gift - choose any DVD (up to €16.99) for free; this was available as a reward for people signing up to their new sky rewards programme; once redeemed it waited on your account until you picked a DVD you wanted; some chose to use their voucher when they got it weeks ago; I only used mine last week to order. Something I wanted 😀 Maybe it was this you used to get Planet of the apes?

    Then weeks later an offer was on to get The Amazing Spiderman (both digital and the DVD posted to you) This as far as I know was available to everyone with a skystore account (this offer wasn't tied to the Sky VIP programme) it was listed as an offer to try out the 'buy and keep' method they use to sell their items

    Sorry for the long post :) This might clear up the mystery of the two free DVDs :)

    Hmmm... i think you’re right. I never entered the sky vip code so assumed the planet of the apes deal was a separate offer. But it seems that sky automatically applied the sky vip offer to my account so that’s why it showed up as free. Bit annoying!

    Got The Amazing Spiderman a while back so probably wasn't limited to vip only.
    Planet of the Apes was on sky vip. As I said it's the wife that deals with it so I wasn't sure how we got them free.

    Thanks.

    Side note:
    Additional info
    Having a ticket does not guarantee entry. Not everyone who is successful in getting tickets will go to the screening, so we have to over-issue more tickets by a percentage to compensate for these no-shows. This makes sure we have a full audience.

    looks like the structure of the way you apply for tickets is changing.
    you enter a lottery for tickets.
    2 that have changed or maybe they are specials.
    are premier league football tickets and Pro14 tickets.

    Got this in an email about how they are improving it:

    You can only book one set of first come, first served tickets per calendar month, subject to availability. There are also limits to the number of tickets you can book for each sport throughout each series or season. For example, you can only enter the ballot to win one set of football tickets per league, per season.

    Simply go to your My Sky app to take part.

    No Show Policy

    To be fair to everyone, if members fail to show up to booked events, we reserve the right to restrict their access to future events.

    I upgraded to the free sky go extra from within the VIP section.
    Is it not free forever now?
    Can't see anywhere to say I will be charged eventually?

    Condition 5 - to continue receiving the reward, you must continue to pay the monthly cost of your sub......so looks like it’s valid as long as you stay with sky under that sub
