[QUOTE="bignick, post: 387983, member: 190163"] I don't think that Sky have ever had a problem with payments payed from an overseas card. I pay mine from a UK account but it's addressed overseas. The thing that they have to be sure of is that they a resident in the UK and that is done by registering the Sky system in a 'valid' uk address. The reason they do this is to ensure that their commitment to the various copyright issues are adhered to. I have an address that I can legitimately register the account to which in the eyes of BSkyB is enough to prove that they keep to the rules. How they do this with all the other accounts that are set up through 3rd party is slightly more vague. Someone told me that there is a bogus set of addresses, perhaps a HUGE skyscrapper that is used to register the subscriptions to, but I honestly don't know for certain. Hope that goes someway to answer your question Cheers Nick [/QUOTE]
