Sky + to Sky HD

When i call Sky to marry my card to the new HD box (bought second hand) do i have to subscribe to HD, i.e. £10 a month? I presently subscribe to sky buy just want the free HD channels for now.

  • Nope, I bought a second hand Sky HD box and get all the free HD channels without the £10 extra e.g. BBC1 HD, ITV HD etc. They sometimes do weekends where you get access to either sports or movies in hd free aswell, worth keeping an eye out for! :)

    No you don't. I know you have already bought your box, but for anyone else the math just didn't work out for me. I got a free HD box from Sky for the £10/month (minimum one year, so £120). All the second hand HD boxes I could find were more expensive that that.
