Looks like Blackrock are the stock-dumping culprits!

If we are to believe them... that they were just rebalancing due to changes in the international indexes...then I think that is a crazy investment philosophy. To buy such a large stake in a company, only to realise a large loss in a relatively short period of time because of a change in The Dow?
Not my idea of investing.

I am sure Chris Keall (now working for The Herald) will write an equally objective piece about Sky and the new CEO when he gets an interview (Yeah, right).
I appreciate robust journalism, and certainly Sky need to answer a number of frank questions - but Chris Keall is so biased against Sky while fawning over Spark. It's embarrassing to read.

Chris Keall's article.

New CEO not a fan of how Fanpass was sold amongst other things and maybe why the HO sport left

So, of all the things that were discussed - that was the most important talking point in Chris' mind.
He is incredibly biased, and surely can't honestly believe that what he prints is objective journalism.
And, for the record, though Fanpass pricing is absolutely ridiculous you can cast from the Fanpass app to your big screen (unless you buy the $15/month mobile-only option).

A good question would be how did they even come up with the $99 a month option? It's absolutely ludicrous.

Agreed. If they didn't want people on a month-by-month option with no contract they just shouldn't have offered that option (rather than giving the option but with an insane price that no reasonable person would ever pay).

I used to pay close to $99.00 for just basic plus sport,when they brought in the new lower cost plans,I phoned them to sort out a new package,after being on hold for over a quarter of an hour,I emailed them to cancel and sent the decoder back to them.Just goes to show simply answering the phone might increase their customer base.

Wow, you packed it in entirely because you had to wait 15 minutes?
Nobody likes being put on hold, but it is a reality for many organisations that wait times (often well beyond 15 minutes in some industries) occur.
