From what I can gather it's multiroom which costs £10/month.

I think you can cancel this after a year but I haven't taken it so I don't know for sure.

Does anyone know if the new boxes will have more bells and whistles or are they just bigger?

The second subscription is a £10 mirror subscription, it will be exactly the same as your current one.

When installing Sky+ they will relocate your other box in another room at the same time.

This offer is now on the sky web site.

I got the SKY+ box this Monday gone on a new subscription for £99. If you want it too tell them your friend got the plus box as a "closure deal" (haggle deal - lol) and you want the same. I did order the sky world with the family pack but I don't think this is neccesary, even if it is you can always downgrade your sub after the first month.

As an existing customer who has just purchased an extra digibox and multiroom for £99 2 weeks ago, I thought I'd see if they would let me have a Sky + box....no such luck, this offer is not for exisiting or previous subscribers according to the supervisor I spoke to. All she kept refering to was sky+ not being available 5 years ago, when i took out my orignal subscription

Anyway, she said take a look at the offers for exisiting subscribers, £149 for Sky+.......I don't think so.

I'm having mine installed tuesday and I've recieved my viewing card in the post today. The card is the same as a regular sky viewing card and the booklet I recieved with it is purely Sky and not Sky+ is this correct?

@cmf21: I'm an existing customer mate and they gave it to me with the code for £99

I just paid 2 weeks ago £199 for sky plus and relocated my exsisting box to another room for free for taking out an extra subscription.

Do you reckon I will be able to purchase an extra sky+ fo £99 to replace the standard box that they relocated.?.

I take it the offer is finished now. Website shows £149 deal, free install on multiroom only. Was this a clear out of old stock boxes thing?

**edit** Ignore me, just found it, seems it depends on what link you click

OOPS FOUND IT - http://www.ordersky.com/equipment/skyplus.asp

Does this mean I just pay 99£ full stop. I have the sports channels at the moment, with all the usual ones. I get the movie ones free atm.

So will I have to pay extra per month?

Thanks
Akhil
