Likewise, can't find anything about a free Sky+ box - only says £49 plus installation fee and this is more than £30. Where are you looking Burnsey?

This is on the main Sky.com page and it infers that it is £30 but that is only new customers. Existing customers have to click the upgrade link where it is £49.

I might have a serious look at that Virgin package myself.

It is thanks. Just to let you know that this has been posted before and there is an absoloutly massive thread on it somewhere.

I phoned Sky yesterday saying that we were thinking of cancelling and asked for a free Sky+ box but was unable to clinch the deal.
Phoned again today and told them that at our local shopping centre they were advertising free box and installation for £30 (new customers) and that I'd like to have the same - we've been a customer for approx 10 years and that, as Virgin were giving away the free box, I was going to go with them. I also said that I had read on the internet that they had given the box for free to other existing customers and I felt it was unfair that we were being excluded - all I wanted was to receive the same fair treatment. I had to stress that we were happy to cancel. After a bit of hmmming and ha-ing and a referral to the manager, they finally agreed. We're happy enough to pay the £30 installation charge, thought it might be pushing my luck too much if I argued further! - it's coming next Wednesday (fingers crossed).

Sorry if this a stupid question:o

But I don't have sky. If I were to get the free sky box, is there a monthly subscription fee I would have to pay?

Thanks in advance

hi yeah I pay £21.50 a month. They wouldn't give a free box if you weren't subscribing

There is no EXTRA monthly fee subscription free for sky + ( it is only for sky HD)
