We're rather happy with our V+ box and were shocked to see how much it would cost to swap back to sky to get the HD channels
 He could always threaten to leave so he can get the box cheaper

We've been with Sky for over 10 years. A free HD box would be nice.

Turns out it wasn't free, but he did get a substantial discount. There was a special offer on just before December. Not sure what the actual amount was though.

Heh heh Pete, I've been with them since long before I lived in this house, and I've been here nearly 16 years!

What about if I got a box through Ebay - would our existing card work (obviously without HD content) ?
edit: ah - it would appear it would after re-pairing the card, but to record Sky+ stuff you need two cables from sky dish... hence sky engineer to come round and do that. Last edited by Pickers; 30-12-2007 at 09:47. |

I reckon I'll get Pheebs on the phone to sky and see what she can get out of them. If thats no good, we'll opt for ebay route. |
