Sky News Red Button service to close

Sky News Red Button service is to close on Monday 30th June 2014

There has been a reduced service for several months, when “Sky text” closed. This was replaced by a limited Sky News Red Button service, offering four news feeds – including rolling headlines, and weather.

The move comes as Sky push their Sky News On Demand service, available by connecting your Sky box to the internet.

Note users in Spain will need to connect their Sky HD box to the internet via a router running a UK VPN service.
