Hi,Just wondered if anyone can shed any light in this.Lounge Sky + HD box
Bedroom 1 sky HDbox
Bedroom 2 old white digibox
Had full tv package plus ESPN and 2 multirooms and HD.. Paying nearly £100!!
Did the I'm cancelling phone call and sky rang back and offered 50% off ..
Didn't really watch the movies and kids didn't really bother much, OH still wanted HD( I can't tell the difference!) and ESPN not needed.
So I got Entertaintment extra plus(with HD) and sports package for £26.75
Now
Lounge box has correct channels
Bedroom 1 has same as lounge box AND ESPN( which I cancelled and isn't on main box) and sky sports( multiroom cancelled)
Bedroom 2 just basic channels.
Any ideas why ? Not complaining but seems odd to me!

    Are you paying two distinct multi-room subscriptions for this? If not, I think your white Sky+ is just acting as a non-subscription decoder.
    I can't explain why you are receiving ESPN on one of your multi-room boxes but not the other.

    Checked my account on line.The white box is unsubsidised( what difference does that make?)
    There is no multiroom or ESPN charge.

    You would only get the extra subscription channels on your third box if you were to take out a second multi-room subscription. If you don't have Multi-room at all then expect Sky to realise this at some stage, at which point your extra channels will suddenly be removed.
