[QUOTE="pat_1, post: 36615, member: 178006"] [b][size=1]sky+ confusion[/size][/b] [font=verdana][size=2]I rang SKY today pretending to be a UK customer thinking of upgrading to Sky+. I have a UK sub. I was told the following; 1. The sky + box is not subsidised. 2. If you want to marry your old card, you ring them but your box will have to call sky centre back. 3. That software downloads are being sent via phone line when sky+ box calls back, guy said last dual recording one was done like that. Is all this true? I thought the software updates were done over air via the satellite itself? If it is, there's no point trying to marry my UK sub to a UK bought sky plus box? Can you get the card married to the Sky+ box and get the Sky+ features activated without phone connection. Was planning to up grade sub too from fam pack as only a few £ more than paying the additional £ 10 for the sky+ features. Suppose i could always threaten to cancel my sub and so the operator loses an upgrade and a sub?? Any advice /thoughts??[/size][/font] [/QUOTE]
