Sky box free channels?

What you say sounds right, even if it's different from what Sky told me.

It seems I paid £20 for something I didn't need, so I stick by the word 'rob'.

'Obtained money by deception' might be a bit closer (robbery requires the use of or threat of immediate violence).

But you needed it if you wanted the few additional channels that it gives you. You failed to do the research beforehand and check what was required.

Huh? I don't remember you being part of the discussion at the time so you're probably unfamiliar with the details.

But if you are, which 'additional channels' does the card offer? Unlikely I know, but they may one/s we watch.

Viva
Sony Entertainment Television

No brainer then, nothing to watch on dirty Desmonds' channels. Save you money unless you want to regionalism your box.

If the Sky agent told that an !!!!!! viewing card is required to watch any Freesat from Sky channels at all, the yes, it was mis-sold. But your existing card (if you were formerly a Sky subscriber) would do the same thing anyway.
