Sky subs...

[SpencerO]

Hi all.. having been on hold for an eternity to either scotland or india.. perhaps one of the PH clan could help? I'm a current Sky+ user at home, but would like to also get sky where i stay during the week. I have an old sky box that works, but it will need a card/matching. I gather i will need a 2nd subscription, no problem, thats understandable - but does anyone know if i can just get the card..? ie i dont need any installation as the new place is an apartment with all the gubbins plumbed in...

cheers in advance

When I moved into my place, we had the sky box & the sky dish was already installed.

Phoned Sky up, they sent me out a new card for that address, 3 month contract instead of 12, plus no need to plug into phone line, & half price for 6 months.

They will do it no probs

Tim.

I think they have got quite clever and you can;t take cards from box to box - my brother and I have both have Sky, but he got the Prem Plus package and thought he'd watch int on my big screen but my box won't accept his card saying it is not the registered card with the registered box, but there may be a way round it for someone technically minded,e.g. not me!

But if he brought his box around too it would work.

PITA though. But the box doesn't know where it is. Friend of mine gets Westcountry TV in the Canaries
