Wanted- Sky plus box

POSTED BY: chrisharry12345 2 weeks, 6 days ago

Looking for a sky plus box asap

At least 80gb, the newer the better with sky anytime, all the cables and a remote

Looking to pay £35 in p+p

Also could somone please explain if i would need a sky+ card with this? Im getting a standard sky box on monday, could i just use the card for that or do i need one for this?

I live in pembrokeshire if anyone has one locally!

cheers

not sure about the card, and sorry for pointing the obvious out but you will need a twin cable putting in and a quad lnb on the dish.

Sky needs to know ur using a sky plus box or else u will only get basic functions. It doesnt cost any more money each month cause its sky plus..........but box needs to get activated so u can access sky plus functions

edit, ur existing card that u have for the normal box is fine for ur new box - but only if sky knows bout the change in boxes

you need the card too, I had the cables put going into my bedroom (with multiroom) and just used a second hand box i bought from a friend, the box never worked as a sky+ box ie, the pause and record features ect.
If you have sky+ elsewhere (downstairs) you may be able to get your card regested to another box (upstairs) and take the card to the box?

You do know like others have said that this will still just be a basic Sky box for you??

Unless you fit a quad lnb to your dish and pay the extra for Sky+ subscription you won't be able to pause, rewind, record or anything. It will just be a basic box.

I have just ordered sky hd, multiroom, the works... they wanted £200 for the extra box to be a sky plus box, so i opted for the standard box and told them that i would pick up a 2nd hand sky plus box.. they sky guy is coming on monday and they said if i asked him nicely he would install the sky plus box as a muiltiroom instead.. cheers for your concern though

Excellent. Even if you don't get one in time, all you have to do is get him to put the extra cable in the room ready for you and when you get one pop the wires in and use the same card you have in your 2nd box and it will then pair itself with the new box.
