Yup, and once the first 12 months is up you will be charged £4 per month, or whatever it costs in 12 months time.

I think BT bury their out of contract pricing better than anyone else. No "price from month 13" next to the £0/month, and not even an asterisk.

The small print, I've paragraphed the new bit


BT Sport � UK residential broadband customers only. BT broadband customers can watch BT Sport online at home with a minimum line speed of 400kbps. To watch BT Sport online elsewhere you need 3G/4G/wifi (charges may apply). To watch BT Sport at btsport.com you need Microsoft Silverlight. The BT Sport App works on iPhone (3GS and above), iPad (iOS 5.1.1 and above) & selected Android devices with OS 4.1. Max. 2 devices simultaneously.
BT Sport is also available on BT TV for new and existing broadband customers who sign up for 12 months or have 12 months remaining on their contract; ongoing renewal needed to get discounted BT Sport. Sport on BT TV requires compatible box from BT � fee £49-£299 may apply.
BT TV customers without BT Infinity will need to order & pay for a viewing card by phone from 1 Aug; allow ten days for delivery. e-billing required.BT Sport is free for new and existing customers. BT Broadband for new customers from £10 a month (plus line rental £15.45 a month). Terms apply.
HD TV pack £3 a month. Requires HD ready TV & cabling. To watch HD on Sky Digital Satellite Platform, customers need a black satellite receiver box. Terms apply.

Now that's confusing..... I'll stick to BT Sport on my Tablet/PC.

Cheapest simplest way if you are a BT Infinity customer is to order BT TV and get all the BT Sport channels bundled in for nothing extra. As an existing BT TV customer I seem to have come out of this well but I have always thought Sky customers were previously offered a favourable deal so it is amusing to watch them squeal now at having to pay what seems like a very reasonable supplement to their big bucks Sky subscription.

I did some digging on this over the weekend. I don't have BT TV but I have DSL broadband and phone line. I occasionally watch BT Sport on the Sky platform.

My options (as discussed with their online help chat) :-

Option 1 - Do nothing and pay £5 per month. Re-contracted for 12 months
Option 2 - Downgrade to BT sport lite - unbelievably re-contracted for 12 months
Option 3 - Remove BT sport. Unfortunately, this is impossible in the online account area.

I would actually question whether it is legal to give 2 options and both require a new 12 month contract?

Following the downgrade link also told me that I didn't have a BT line !!!!

My contract currently runs out mid August and given these BT sport changes apply from the 1st, then I guarantee something will get screwed up and I will be charged for something I don't want.
