Hi Adri_G I just made a change in order to get sky sports UHD added. This according to the agent I spoke to resulted in a change to the volt package and as a result without telling me they withdrew the Sky Entertainment & Cinema Ultra HD from my package. When I queried this they explained the withdrawal was part of the new package but I could dd it back for £6 a month which I agreed to. 2 separate agents have tried to make the change and failed. Each of them referred the problem to technical team. The technical team have rung me and explained it is not a technical issue but a simple package change and that I needed to phone customer service and get it sorted based on the notes he left on the system. When ringing customer service they tell me the service has been withdrawn and reinstatement is impossible. I notice from your reply to someone else on this issue three weeks ago that the service was still available it is still advertised on the website. I was hoping you might be able to intervene as I am getting absolutely nowhere with my calls. Looking forward to hearing from you. Many thanks.

It took me 3 attempts over an hour each to get Sky Sports UHD added to my package, I too am on the Voltage package, after 2 told me i couldn't add it saying its on new packages only for new customers, the third time eventually was able to add this onto my package for £7 extra. For some reason they did change my phone landline package to international ones too. So it can be done so I would contact them again, maybe ask for the complaints team they seem to be English call centers.

Hi Thanks for that. I too have just got it resolved but mine was the fifth attempt after I'd put in a web form complaint. So anyone out there still having the problem provided you're on a certain level of package you definitely can have it added and it definitely is not discontinued as other agents have told me. The guy I spoke to had difficulty adding it and I think that's because their packages are less than flexible. He managed to do it with help from his supervisor.

Hi @TDarrell9
Double check your new contract to ensure you are only being charged £7 extra for the Sky Sports UHD.
Also check that your contract length hasn't been xtended which is possible if they've changed your call package.
VM shouldn't have changed your call package to include Interrnational calls as that's normally a chargeable extra unless you requested it.
Are you now on the International anytime chatter package?

Hi again @TDarrell9
If you are happy to pay that price for the next 18 months until August '24 then thats good, but it will probably still be affected by next years annual price increase which will be next April/May
Some sources currently forecast the RPI to be around 4% then, plus an additional 3.9%.
