[QUOTE="Alan Waddle, post: 93265, member: 190189"] thanks for the quick answer! when i refer to "mate" i mean i have to find one willing to do this, i think most of my mates have sky - i presume this is not possible, ie the call has to be made by someone with no sky sub at his address? also, will they send the card to him, after which he has to send it to me - i understand there's a hurry there as the card will have to be in the box within 10 days of ordering or somit, otherwise sky will close it? what info specifically will sky ask for when making the call - is the address enough, do you have to provide working land telephone line (i presume not as many ppl only have mobiles these days)? in fact, if i have an address of a mate, what will stop me making the call myself, pretending to be my mate? what exact info of my box will they need? i have the version and serial no:s, i presume that's enough? the problem at the moment is - i bought a sky sub thru a uk based company 3 mths ago, 2mths ago i changed my cc number, they have failed to change the cc number on my sub and thus yesterday my sky sub was cut off. i now have to either activate the old card (impossible since the company are not co-operating) or buy a new card - an i do NOT relish paying another £150 to open yet another card thru yet another company who can stitch me up!
