[QUOTE="mesaka, post: 482547, member: 176060"] Currently have a bog standard sky installation here in Germany (using a grundig box; 85cm dual LNB dish). The box is showing its age and am considering upgrading to SKY+ or HD. I would source the box from e-bay and then get the SKY+ features switched on. From reading the threads here I see I would probably have to link it to the 'phone system for the 1st install. Its a bit of a pain but not an insurmountable problem as I am often in the UK. My only issue is that my subscription is through my parents in Scotland and I plan simply to go with my card and the new box to a friends house in London. Plug into his cables for the telephone and dish and then give sky a call. Would the fact that the caller ID for the box being different to the registered 'phone number be an issue for SKY when they are switching on the recording features, etc.? Thanks in advance for any guidance. [/QUOTE]
