Sky Multiroom help please

Carnwaj

I had a very strange conversation with sky. I wanted a multiroom subscription but no additional box ie I pay them another £10 a month. This did not compute with the lady from sky who insisted I bought a box; HD, sky+.

Is it possible just to get multiroom without purchasing an additional box (maybe a standard box fro free?)

Yes you can get the card without purchasing a box or paying for installation. The same terms apply ie. phone line needs to be connected and its a 12 month contract, but all they do is add an indirect box onto your account and the system will generate a card and send it out to you. Once you have it, call up and pair it up with your new box and off you go! A lot of people do this if they get old boxes from family members etc.
