Sky cards from XL Trading

The Sky cards yet again for the clearly brain deficient (said many times now)
1. We get direct from Sky
2. We PAY Sky for having this item
We DO NOT encourage clients to commit theft, not at all.
The Sky cards are encoded with a package that comes from Sky directly - they create the cards themselves and send them on to us... hence the statement that states, 'there is no comeback from this item'
I can see how people may think this is a weird statement, and of course, we may have to jig the description around as this product is perfectly legal to use.
Thankyou.
As one of the " Brain Deficient " that you refer to, I am sure you will not mind that I will be sending a link to this thread and your website to the Chief Executive of Sky for his perusal and interest, just for clarification of the legitimacy of your companies activities relating to the Sky Cards that you sell.

I would be careful buying from you, this is my opinion
Firstly in my opinion what you are doing is in fact illegal as others have said
I wouldn't trust you with my personnel data and If you do get busted what's to stop the authorities chasing its customers assuming it does get busted and keeps records.0 -

Can you let the good people on here know the following info:
1. Have we ever said to you that you could do something illegal with the cards?
Here is a quote from your allegedly illegal websiteYou can also order any box office movies/sports events/WWE or any other live event using this card without having to pay a penny.
obtaining services without any intention of paying is illegal. Your website is thus inciting illegal activity - so the answer is yes.0 -
It doesn't look like there will be an explanation why some cards might get cut off after 1 month, some after 3 months, or indeed why they are cut off at all.
Can any moneysavers compare the cost of buying a new card at certain intervals from this firm with the price of an ordinary Sky subscription?0 -

True, but I would like it to remain so that I can post Skys official response to me asking them if it's fine for me to use XLtradings card to watch pay per view movies and sporting events free of charge, legally and with no fear of any comeback as per xltradings website.Martin Lewis is always giving us advice on how to force companies to do things.

Indeed, I am confident that MSE are well aware of this thread, I suspect that they are giving XLTrading enough rope to slowly hang themselves.0
