Putting a regular sky viewing card in a Plus box will not give access to the plus facility. You will be able to access the channels you subscribe to but no pause, rewind or record. Need to call them to get them to add the Plus bit (think its free now) if you wanted freesat (which is what i thought, got confussed with the other thread :lol: then you have to pay sky £5 a month i belive to use the plus. | |

If they have a sky box currently they probably subscribe to sky. | |

Also i belive you wont be able to use any of the "plus" features unless you subscribe to sky. | |

You need to phone Sky and get them to pair the card with the box. | |

As long as there are two feeds coming from the dish that you want to put the Sky+ box with I can't see a problem? | |

Going on from another thread I saw... if I swap my parents regula rold Sky DIgital box for a Sky+ HD box (wires and dish already sorted), will Sky+ work off the bat or do they need a new viewing card? T |
