Free Sat

Sorry if this is ni the wrong place.

I was wondering if someone could tell me how I go about getting a free sat card?

My friend has just cancelled his sky and was going to buy a freeview box but I told him I had heard you could get a freesat card for his sky box.

Is this correct? and if so where do I get one?

Thanks in advance for all your posts!!!!!

    His card should work for the freesat channels without any further action. Just wait 24hrs after card deactivation and it should revert to a freesat card.

    DON'T buy a freesat card. Sky won't tell you that you don't need one, they'll charge you 20 quid . They will then offer a refund (if you ask) but when you return the card, they'll just deny that they've received it and never give you your money back

    Not that I'm bitter or anything, I just don't like being robbed
