help with internet/phone package

No reason why you should, its the box on the front of the dish that they would swap out, called the LNB (Low Noise Block), for Sky + installations they fit a quad LNB, you then have a couple of spare feeds available if you want to use your existing box in another room ( £10 extra a month for multiroom ) or tea and hobknobs for the Sky installer and just the freesat from sky channels.

Hi, there is another thread which gave me information which enabled me to negotiate a change to an Option 3 package for £10 per month, and pay line rental for 12 months ( £120 ) i.e. £10 per month instead of £13.60.

May not be applicable to you, but might be worth contacting them to see if you can get a better deal.

Not something I'm familiar with, clipped this from an old Grawniad article.

First the good news. If you have Sky already and pay for multiroom then the Sky Player on Xbox is free. You simply get access to all the packages you already pay for. If you have Sky but don't have multiroom then it will cost you a fiver a month to use the player on the Xbox. Remember that you will need to have a Live Gold account too.
