Apparantly they do a check on your address to see if you are an existing customer, so do you think it would work if you used another name, i would love to try. Any sky ppl out there to give us advice?, thanks

Does the Monthly Equipment subscription fee applies for the first 3 months?

So the sums are:

Sky+ Box + Dish : £0.00
Install: £0.00
Viewing package: £7.50 for 3 months (£22.50)
Viewing package: £15.00 for 9 months (£135.00)

So the first year will cost you: £157.50

As I am debating getting this or a Freeview recorder.

Will the unit still be able to record when the year is up when the contract is cancelled?

Is there a code for the free DVD offer? What do you have to quote them?

TOTALLY wrong calculations mate. With a Sky+ box you can add £10 per month on top of your calculations, UNLESS you buy a Sports or Movies package in which case Sky+ features are free

Ah, I missed that - a bit of a con really - so the final total for 1 year of sky would be £279.50 then! Blimy

better off with a freeview recorder! at a price of £119.99 from argos. Well, that answered my own question.

yes but you also need to take into consideration the costs involved with getting a new ariel if required.

I have emailed Sky requesting my DVD player :cool: I would've telephoned them, but i placed my order online. I have made them aware that a "freind of mine" received both offers. Lets see what happens

I am going to get my mum to phone them tomorrow (well today really) as I just got her to join 3 weeks ago - she paid for her sky plus box so I am going get her to ask for the offers to be added to her account retrospectively otherwise she will tell them that she will just cancel and reorder - thus causing more work/hassle for both SKY and herself - will let you all know how it goes
