Hi All

As you've noticed, ESPN America is now being shown on channel 34.

It is encrypted, and is being provided free to anyone who previously subscribed to Setanta, through any provider. It will also be shown to Top Up TV customers who subscribe to TV Favourites or Picturebox.

If you aren't a subscriber but would like to see the channel whilst it's available for free, then you can do so by calling Top Up TV and asking to subscribe to ESPN. You will need to have a viewing card, and will also need to provide name and address details to set up an account, but you won't be required to give any payment details.

Cheers
Sam

Edit: maybe I should have provided the phone number: 08444 159 159. I would also suggest waiting until tomorrow to do this, as we have done this very quickly and our agents are only just being briefed about this also.

Further edit: sorry, I should also have said that you don't need a TUTV DTR to do this - you can sign up for this channel if you have a set top box or a CAM.
