Sky TV in Spain?

[smithp71]

Can anyone help me please, we have a sky box in Spain that is picking up the usual free to air programmes. Anyone know how we can get a card to view all channels that will work in Spain? People tell me that if I take my UK one that it will not work as the card is registered to the address?

Hi smithp71, i'll drop you an PM and explain. If anyone else has a similar question, just let me know.

A Sky card will provide all programmes that you are paying for when inserted into its own Sky Digibox. If you put it in a different Sky Digibox it will not display any "Premium" channels.

The card doesn't care which country it's in so, provided the Digibox doesn't need a phone connection* (read your contract) and provided you don't tell Sky, it will work as above.

*Even if it does require a phone connection, there's a "black box" workaround for Spain.
