Top Up TV lot had a preview channel (xtraview?) that worked the same.
Thinking about it to use the services legally ISTR you had to phone a
no in manually which appeared on the screen.


Top up TV requires a special box though.


Agreed, but the preview channel was a sort of try before you buy so
used the non card system as far as I remember. wasn't the sort of
thing that I would want so didn't pay that much attention. Was about
the time I turned to radio again and dropped Sky having got fed up

other history to show. Having invoked Godwin I can now leave this
