We show you how to get BT Sport 1, home of BT’s Premier League coverage – for no extra cost.
Re: BT Sport through Freesat From Sky Go to solution @garybs29 I believe if you cancel your sky subscription and drop down to Freesat from Sky, the card is required but becomes passive rather than active meaning that no ppv events or subscriptions can be added to it. All four BT Sport channels, plus Box Nation Watch on Sky in standard definition Add HD pack FREE for 3 months (then £6.50 a month extra from month 4) You can normally watch BT Sport within 15 minutes (Please note: it can take up to 4 hours).
Sky TV customers with BT Broadband can make use of a neat menu hack that sees them essentially getting BT Sport 1 for free. It’s called BT Sport Lite.
When we say that BT Sport Lite is ‘essentially free’, you’ll still need to be a Sky TV subscriber; packages start at £20/month if you want a Sky+ box and £44/month for Sky Q packages.

BT Broadband starts at £5/month plus line rental. For this, you’ll get a basic ADSL service giving you speeds of up to 17Mbps and 12GB of data.
The cheapest BT Broadband package that comes with unlimited downloads will set you back £13/month plus line rental.
BT line rental is currently charged at either £17.99/month for the standard rate or £194.28 up front for 12 months’ worth of line rental.

Note that from July 3 onwards, BT’s putting up the cost of line rental to £18.99/month or £205.08/year.
So at the very least, you’re going to be looking at paying £42.99/month for Sky TV and BT Broadband and £43.99/month from July onwards. You probably want to know how to get a free pay TV channel right?
