Content Availability 14. We can change, add to, replace or withdraw any Channels available through the BT Sport App. We can also change, add to, replace or withdraw Channels within a Pack, or introduce new Packs or withdraw Packs (including any Pack you are subscribing to) for any of following reasons: a.

To allow us to change the way that we charge you (if applicable) for certain Channels, Packs or other content (for example when we add new Channels);
d. In our opinion, it is no longer commercially sensible for us to provide that Channel or Pack (for example because it has become too expensive for us to buy sport content for broadcast); e.

As a result of any change in the law or any regulation or regulatory guidance that is applicable to us.
15. If we withdraw the Pack you currently receive, we can move you onto the nearest equivalent Pack. We will tell you about this, and any increases to your subscription charges, at least 30 days before it happens.
