Sky+

Hi. We are thinking of stopping sky because we are cutting back. We have a sky + box and want to know if we can still use its functions and if not, is there a way that we can because we have paid for it and are a bit naffed that we can't use it's record facilities etc for the free channels that we will have left.xx
Wildly my mind beats against you, yet the soul obeys. :heartpuls

    You will have to pay £10 per month to use the Sky+ features, its free if you have a movie or football subscription

    You could always try and sell it on ebay to get some money back?
    Fortune's always hiding, I've looked everywhere......

    It is not possible, you effectively have an expensive free view box.

    I stopped Sky+ a montha ago and I searched high and low for a solution.
