F1 season pass 2021

[joshyf1]

Will this happen? If so I hope it's not going to cost too much more than £200 as I am on a limited budget as it is

Sky has made it clear that they only seem to care about the EPL when it comes to their sport channels. 

For a brief period I recall Sky allowing TV customers to pick the channels they want for sports. 

For those who only have interest in Golf, will have to put up with the other channels they have zero interest in. So its not just F1 fans. 

That being said, I don't have a sports pass and don't see me getting one again anytime soon.

Maybe I am odd but I do like Sky Sports if anything BT Sports has made it worse and more expensive for the U.K. . As for me I have to subscribe to both platforms to watch the Sports I enjoy and yes Premier League is the focus of both platforms but then you can’t blame them it is the most popular sport in the U.K. I don’t enjoy but I don’t blame people who do. 

If anything I find the normal price of the entertainment pass and the movies one more expensive then the sports one. I pay more for my mobile phone contract then I do sports. £34 a month is not a lot of money.

Look out for offers on the 25th march! a little birdy has told me there will be an offer of £25 pm for 6 months sports pass which they did last year after the F1 pass balls up!!!!!

[schnapps]

Yeah over on NOW Twitter they have mentioned a six months for £25 per month offer coming down the line before the start of the F1 season.

What annoys me big time with NOW is that certain customers get cheaper deals than others 😠😠😠.

NOW knows how to alienate their customers by not offering the same sports £20 per month deal to everybody who wants it.

It's the same with other Memberships as well (it infuriates me).

They better understand prices must be carefully placed...few are going to pay high fees for a season going to be similar previous one as little car changes...

This is NOT the case.

Check your promotions section of email inbox, the offer is there but expires in 1 day so hurry!

£20 per month for 9 months! Boom!

[Anonymous User]

@Jero139 there is absolutely zero emails in my inbox.

No offer.

Nada.

Looks like I'll find another way to watch F1.

Good way to lose £180 Sky.

Hi

Please make me an offer for F1 2021.

I know about the £20 per month offer for all sports. Thats no good. I only want F1.

Happy to pay a sensible offer.

Thanks

I know about the £20 per month offer for all sports. Thats no good. I only want F1.

You can’t have just F1 on Now TV.

You can’t have just F1 on Sky.

You can’t have just F1 from any provider in the UK.

I only want Sky Atlantic, but I have to have all the other channels.  

There is an F1 channel on 24/7, you don’t have to watch any other channels.  You can watch it on two different screens at the same time to make sure no one watches any other sport.  You can even watch all the on demand of F1.   

I only follow GAA in the summer and I have to pay full whack to watch a couple of games at the weekend.  I would love a 24/7 channel + on demand for £20/month.

Ultimately £20/month is as good an offer as you will get. Take it or leave it.

@SweetBlitz I'm pretty sure the point is we want the £20pm but only a select few customers are getting it at that price so am unsure what your point is really?

[Anonymous User]

With the £25 a month offer is it possible to therefore get the season (minus a quali session) for £228?

i.e. Bahrain day pass £10 

6 months offer pass (17th April-17th Oct) £25 x6 = £150

2 month passes (22nd Oct-22nd Dec) = £68

Total = £228

@Anonymous User the £25 a month offer ends on the 11th April so I’m not sure that will work

That isn’t to say there won’t be more offers in the future though 

[Anonymous User]

Out of principal they can shove that offer where the sun doesn't shine. 

[Anonymous User]

So Germany gets it at €19.99 (£15) https://skyticket.sky.de/bestellen/supersport/?intcmp1=st:index:header:ssp 

Which is sky exclusive and Italy gets it with no discount albeit works out to £25 (€29.99) 

[Anonymous User]

@hinz If you had to do the 11th April-11th October that would also be ok for the same price. Would that work?

[hinz]

@Anonymous User yep actually your right that would be fine. Japanese GP is on the 10th Oct and then the next race is not until late October so you could subscribe again at that point for £33.99 per month for two months. 

have to say though I’m still super annoyed at the price difference and certain offers being made available to a select few. Makes my blood boil

not sure if I’ll be signing up

I can't get the 6 months pass to work cheaper than I can get the full monthly passes, and thats without the possibility of an offer down the line as happened last year when cancelling a monthly pass.

From quick calculations, but being cautions with pass end dates.

I can do all the races less 2 days of practice but benefitting from the free Channel 4 coverage for British GP. This requires 7 monthly passes, total cost around £238.

26/03-25/04, 30/04-29/05, skip BAKU practice 05/06-04/07, Channel4 18/07=British GP, 30/7-29/08, Skip dutch GP practice 04/09-03/10, 08/10-07/11, 19/11-18/12

if I use 6 months at £25/month, but starting first quali of the opener, I need an additional 3 monthly passes to cover the shortfall, total cost around £252.

6m=Skip Sakhir practice 27/03-26/09, 1m=01/10-31/10, 05/11-04/12, 05/12-04/01

I am sure there are other versions

IMHO, practice and qualy of season opener is probably some of the most interesting sessions.

Here we are again, another F1 season, another mickey mouse situation having to buy one pass one month, hop on one leg, buy a different pass next month, hop on other leg.

Why do NowTV treat customers so badly, some get £20/month e-mail, some get £25/month on web others get only £33/month standard.

Would it not be in the best interests to have one fair priced pass for F1 for the whole season or a monthly F1 pass without all the other channels that most F1 fans don't care for?

[Anonymous User]

I think it’s disgusting. I only want to watch F1, did a live chat with now tv last week and they assured me there would be an F1 pass offer today, I don’t hold out much hope, but how can some people get 9 month for £20 and other not get the deal? What an absolute con! 

[Anonymous User]

Live chat are a waste of time and space, spent an hour messing around with them earlier today, after they collect your details keep you waiting for 5 mins and disconnect you, start again, give all details, can only give the £25 month offer and say £20 is by e-mail only, collect all details again, verify your account security and check that you on generic e-mail offers list, still can't give the £20/month offer and ask you to wait for an e-mail for £20 if your lucky.

Customer non-service at its very finest.
