    I have been highly entertained by wellymudbed i hesitate to say this but i have just got my card and checked package also activated sky plus all good. iI rang 7 times untill sorted but i was a cancelled sub.
    The other interesting thing i did which might be of use to others is i bought a freesat card on my 3rd call and that could have registered me for the offer (small price to pay) Good Luck everybody

    hi all
    i have recieved my new card today rang to activate but said i did not have phone line connected.confirmed i was on 50% off for 12 months nad advised how to do it myself however when i have connected my phone line and gone through it i am just getting the phnoe line is not connected is this because i gave a slightly different telephone number is there any other way to activate it without having to give the telephone number ?
    thanks in advance


    you do not need to be connected to the phone line to get your card activated, after you have registered your card with sky and given them your digi box details, they usually say that it will be connected within a couple of hours via sat, they just send a signal via sat to your digi box, :D so all you need to do is make sure your card is in the box and its switched on , thats all

    good luck:D

    this just means literally it can't dial out for some reason, i had that a year ago and it was a dodgy extension cable, its defo nothing to do with sky or this offer, just a techical hitch with the wiring on the cable/phone

    well my card arrived.

    rang up and activated it - and that was done within 15 mins. So i now have movies.

    rang to cancel old sub and give 30 days notice (and did check and say, this is just the 4 mixes, new card is 4 mixes plus movies)

    worse comes to worse i am on new contract at same price as old one (well £18 more as i have movies) (plus paying for 1 month for both contracts)

    but i think it all went fine.

    Does Anybody know if you can change your contact phone number online (ie to get one of their broadband packages) once you've had the new card activated?
    :confused:

    yep but if you ring a couple more times you'll get somebody who isn't quite 'on-the-ball' ;)
