Sky sports mix and red button

Ok, so the launch of Sky sports mix has been roughly what 8 months. Still not on Now TV and based on other forums Sky couldn't care less about its Now TV sports customers.

Same applies to the Red Button sports content, this is no where to be seen. And again not a single word on if Now TV will ever get this function. 

Now TV is meant to be a viable alternative from Sky, with getting ALL sports coverage on Now TV. 

I find it handy having options for day, week and month passes. But what good is this where you are not getting ALL coverage? There has been many Malaga games that I have missed thanks to the Red Button feature and Sports Mix channel both being non existant on any of the Now TV platforms.

From what I gather Now TV staff keep an eye on these threads, please can someone give me a rough date on when we will see;

1) Sports Red Button being available on ALL platforms (not just the Smart Box)

2) Sports Mix channel coming to either Entertainment or Sports Passes (couldn't care which one but one at the very least)

 

Also the lack of on demand content sickens me, as I watch WWE Raw and Smackdown from time to time, but due to the timings I am never able to watch it live or the "late night" showings. So this being on catch up would incline me more to be a monthly pass customer. 

This is a must, not just to have Live events but on Catch up as well. 

FYI that I do not work for NOW, just a NOW customer trying to help

Yeah, kind of feel ripped off since only reason for getting the day pass was to watch this game. Truly sucks that our coverage is same games over and over with barely any viewing if other teams.

Really disappointed that it is not explicitly stated that you cannot watch Sky Sports red button. I have just purchased a monthly pass for a game I can't watch.  OK if that is the service and it is clearly stated but not OK to make it appear that customers can view all sky sports content. Having looked ontheforum this is obviously something that has been requested for a long time. What is the update please?

Just been ripped of for another £7 Skay 'Day Pass' ! Montpellier/Glasgow advertised as being on Sky Sports - then I find out too late it isn't - at least not via this platform.

I don't want to watch Starlets, or some bloody football match ! That isn't what I paid for.

Had someone from Ofcom here the other day to do a survey, and I have her contact details. It's about time Ofcom looked at this shocking rip-off service and made sure we get what we pay for !
