I think they went the wrong way round a lot of things.
I had a awkward 2 months with them and didn't enjoy it. They were a hard company to leave and had been worse before I joined.
I wont miss them and hope I can watch the Premier League games, boxing and UFC for free now.

ESPN have bought setanta's 46 preimer league games for the 2009/10 season. Sky have picked up 23 extra games from 2010 - 2013 with ESPN picking up the other 23 games that setanta had "bought" for the same term. Virginmedia are in talks with ESPN to ensure the 46 games for next season will be shown for virginmedia customers.
ESPN will be £10 p/m with virginmedia. I'll be saving myself 2.99 p/m as I'll go for the ESPN subscription for next season only.
More info at http://www.virginmedia.com/myvirginmedia/setanta.php
Not sure what will happen to the England, FA Cup and other shizzle setanta used to show thou.

you mean the last six months...
my old man tried to cancel six months ago as it was obvious they was struggling but they reduced his monthly payments down to 3.80 a month.
Thats it for setanta Landy, you won't get any cash off them.
