To cancel your sub channels but keep the Sky+ facility.
But it's a daft move, as it will still cost you £120pa, for a little more than that you can buy a Freesat Humax PVR at no ongoing cost.
It's a straight box swap, no installing required.No free lunch, and no free laptop0 -
Thanks macman, i think after consideration we will be going for the freesat. As you said, that way there are no ongoing costs.
Much thanks to everyone who cleared up all the questions i hadDEBT FREE AND PROUD'Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt'0 -

Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.0 -
Can i just ask if you can pause and rewind from all HDR PVR boxes?
Also someone has mentioned that you need a card (£25) to view freesat channels can you tell me if this is the case and where to get one if it is?
One last question, does it need an internet connection also?DEBT FREE AND PROUD'Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt'0 -

Yes thats what a PVR does.

No thats for Freesat from Sky which is a different service.
One last question, does it need an internet connection also?
Some of them do for catch up services, you'll need to check out the specs.That gum you like is coming back in style.0 -
