    What if you have bought an old box off E-bay and you tell the operater this ? Do you think this would be OK?

    yes, that'll be fine but the Sky+ manual enabling requires you to give them the serial number of the box and they'll already have it on record, i had that when i phoned, she told me they'd already got the box details but it wasn't a problem ;)

    Does anyone know how long the 1/2 price offer is on for? How long does it take to set up? Can I leave it until the end of March before ordering the FreeSat offer?

    31st March..........at the moment
  • I just called and was told that becuase I wasn't on their system as being sent a leaflet. But I was offered either 50% off for 6 months or a new install at 33% off.

    I've gone for the 50% for 6 months, it's a new 12 month contract so I'm mulling over whether to activate it or not, but at least I get the ball rolling.

    I just need to cancel and reduce my existing package now.

    Quick question?

    We have sky + (used alot!) and I wan't to take advantage of this deal. Contract is in OH name so that's not a problem, we also do have a free sat system aswell. (gonna claim OH has left me and I'm taking over the sky +,not that he has!)

    If I am succesful and I get my new viewing card, when they pair it to the box will I loose my programs from the box? (a possible disaster)

    Also can I cancel the existing contract if I know the password to the account?

    Thanks
    Money, money, money, must be funny....in a rich mans world.

    Just cancelled my existing account, wasn't offered any money off, he did try to convince me to change my package but he failed to spot that monetarily that woudln't save me anything :rolleyes:
    Cancelled on 6th April, so my next payment will only be £4.

    I'm going to wait until the last minute until I activate the new card in case they call me with an offer...

    The deal is looky very dodgy. Received my card today, phoned up & activated, then asked to confirm price, they quoted full price of £21, told them it was wrong. To cut a long story short, after 50 minuites passed from dept to dept I was told I'm not entitled to the deal & tough because I've accepted ther T&C's my activating the card I can't cancel. I have cancelled my old contract, but that runs for 30 days, overlapping, & now I'm stuck with a 12 month contract. I've sent them an email but don't hold out much hope.

    I ordered this On Monday Just got my card in the post my current sub doesnt run out untill the 23rd this month should I wait till then to activet?
    also I am concered re the quoted post dont want to end up with a 12 mth contract at full price.
    what happens if i dont activate this card will it just cancel itself ?
    Dont know what to do now feel in a delema

    I got my new card and did the installer setup and then all channels worked had to call the 800800 to get the box paired with the card for sky +
