Ad free with Boost

[FenBoyP]

I have Now Sports membership with Boost, which should be ad free right? But I get ads between overs and at the start, during play breaks, etc? So, thinking I may as well just cancel Boost unless there's a fix?

On live streams you will.

Thank you cor replying redchiz1, much appreciated. From the sent link, though, this is the first paragraph: 

• Ad-free streaming: Cinema, Entertainment and Sports Members can watch on-demand shows, movies and sport without ads.

And my Sports sub is not 'mobile' only.

So, nothing is stated here under that link, but on Sky/NOW live sport streams, are ads just a given, and if so, should this be stated and this feature removed as surely it is misleading?

It does go on to say:

Ah, so no ads, except for ads for Now, and those on live channels.

So what ads don't you see?

Bit like the BBC, where you pay for a licence, but are inundated with "not ads" for BBC programs you have absolutely no interest in.

It's all a con.

All live streams regardless of channel on NOW will have adverts. Boost just removes third party adverts from on demand content.

You will get promotional trailers for Sky/NOW content at the start and these annoyingly are NOT skippable 😡

Many thanks RedChiz1, yes, saw this and understand what it means now in this context, thank you (I subscribe to other sport streams that are ad free). Thanks for taking the time, appreciated
