Boost and Sky Sports - Adverts still playing

Paying for Sky Sports plus Boost. When watching live golf the program is littered with adverts every few minutes. This can’t be right surely? No adverts is more important to me than HD and 5.1. But I would like to get what I’m paying for….

Boost only removed adverts for on demand content not live.

For boost you’ll get the advantage of 1080p, 5.1 sound and 3 streams.

Ah, okay. Thanks for replying. Although not the answer I was hoping for. Can’t see me subscribing for long if that’s the case. The advert/program ratio is incredibly aggressive, and I’m getting fed up of constantly having to mute the tv while the incessant crap plays every few minutes. I’d rather hoped that the high subscription cost would negate the need for bombarding the customers with ads. Sorry, I’m not moaning at you, I’m just very disappointed in the package.

The only live channels you can get right now without adverts is the BBC. 

Also NOW can only show what Sky air and they are all about profit so the live channels for Sky will ALWAYS have advertising I’m afraid.
