FREE SKY + for new customers

suniil

no. definitely you can order SKY+ online! registration page looks like a mess (.css files fails to load i guess) but you can go through the process

also my goal is HD only! once we have SKY+ dish/cables in place it's a matter of swapping SKY+ with HD box.

HD box can be pre-ordered from simplydigital (8-10 days delay) and once i have HD box i'll ebay SKY+ box.

That saves my £10 pm on HD subs

Are the Sky+ boxes on the deal refurbs??

The newer boxes have larger hardrives for more storage.

If I was to take up this offer, can I move to a cheaper package or do you have to stay on the World Package for the minium period of the 12 month contract?

You can order Sky+ online, but not this deal, as far as I can see. Despite the £10 for ordering online and the £50 quidco cashback, it would still be cheaper doing it over the phone because the box is worth more than £60, which you are getting for free with the telephone deal.

You just have to subscribe to Sky for 12 months - once the 3 months is up, you can reduce your package to something cheaper, if you want. Just bear in mind that once you've knocked a couple of the premium packages off (eg, Sports and Movies) then you will have to start paying the additional £10 per month for the Sky+ subscription.

am i right in thinking to record programs using the sky+ box, you have to subscribe to the sky+ service?

Sort of. It costs a tenner a month but that is waived if you subscribe to Sky Movies or Sports.

you can downgrade to lowest package (£15) at anytime with 1 month notice, but better to do this after 3 months. This saves your £10 x 3 towards sky+ subs charges

Just to calrify, are you saying that you can get your Sky+ HD box from another retailer , plug it in the existing cables etc, sell your existing Sky+ box...and not have to pay the extra £10/mth HD fee?
