    For this reason I will not upgrade sky box to sky+ because it is a condition that the box is connected to a phone line.

    Mine hasn't been connected since 10 mins after the installer left and Sky haven't bothered me. Apparently they only actually say anything if you have Sky Multiroom which could mean you've given your card/box to somebody else on the cheap.

    What credit limits is everyone getting from these? I noticed their MAX credit limit is £10K. So I guess they're not exactly targetted at the well-heeled.
    I know nothing

    I only got £500. Received my card today and noticed they have left out my town on my address - they have my street then county then post code.

    My card arrived yesterday - at the same time as the pin no.The limit is 3.5k but the rate is 16.9% not the 15.6% I was told.Not important though as I don`t intend to pay any interest.

    Card not arrived yet but found out was given £2K. So quite a step up from my existing credit limits.

    I'm still waiting after almost a month after telling them all my details over the phone (they phoned in response to my written application). When will they send the damn thing?

    Not at all impressed so far!
