:)hi,


your welcolme pat.

i forgot to add that the carphonewarehouse website also does free delivery i believe so saving even more if there is not a branch near where you live.

also i see from the box/instructiopns i bought today that there is also an option if you do not wish to subsribe to the 12 month contract. you pay £120 for the freesat service which includes instalation,box and card.
this normally costs £150 and some details in case you are interested at:

some1shy,

Not 100% sure but wouldn't this be a better deal.

Just had another look and £10 option is probably better if it includes £41/month package. If you want lesser packages, say £20, then the above link may be better.

A good deal if you are looking to get SKY anyway but regarding this statement :

'Give friends or family the new Sky Starter Pack for Christmas, and they'll get standard installation of their free equipment, and depending on which package they choose up to 2 months viewing, when they subscribe to Sky digital for a year '

I wouldn't be too thrilled with receiving a monthly bill for Xmas ;D

For the customer what is the point of the Sky starter box?

You can get the BBC services from satellite without needing a viewing card at all, because they are broadcast "in the clear" (not encrypted). Sky, of course, would rather you did not know that.

is there a way of getting these cheap boxes without signing up for subscription?

I dont understand why this is a good offer, you can get all the equipment free direct from sky and they're doing first 3 months half price just now.

Am I missing something then ???

well dont want the whole package think we want the family deal or something like that? its like 16 pounds?
no need for the big package as we wouldnt be watching any of them..

I haven't got sky and these all seem good deals. However what happens if I take out a 12month contract and then move house in 6months can you transfer the contract

The Sky site is quite crafty - you can only order the more expensive packages online, but have to phone up for the cheaper ones.... ::) presumably so they can try to talk you into wasting money on a Sky World package.
