Unable to locate any deal that expired on Dec 27th - the only £15 sports deal that I can find, expired in September - please check date and confirm.....
Those deals were sent to named individuals so it's possible that the date varied depending on the customer and when they were sent.0 -
I have been having a few problems with my sky+hd off and on for a number of months now. Recordings fail, it comes up with no satellite signal, usually on the channels I watch..not all of them. Usually it sorts itself out once I've switched it off at the wall then back on but has started to take longer. I have checked the input 1 and 2 signal, one is fine but 2 shows no quality or strength or locked. I got told to switch it off and swap the cables round at the back, but when I did this both 1 and 2 inputs showed no quality strength or locked when the box came back on. After swapping them back it went back to input 1 fine but nothing for input 2 again. There is nothing blocking the dish and it's not when there's bad weather. Does anyone know if this sounds like hd box failing, cabling or dish. I do not have another box to try and don't want to be talked into sky Q if I have to ring them.
Any advice would be appreciated0 -

[Deleted User] said:Reference Channel 5 specifically it is not a free channel as far as cable subscribers and decoding boxes are concerned. Some companies have to pay Channel 5 to add it to the list therefore it is one of the first to go if you have cancelled subscriptions for example and also faults that need a valid card and decoder
You're way out of date, no viewing card is required in a Sky box anymore and hasn't for a long while.0 -
