    Hi all,

    If I get Sky + on the current offer of €49, and just get the basic package, it'll cost €20-25 per month.

    Does that include all of the FTV channels ? Or will I miss out on some as I'm in the RoI ?

    Could I get a UK FreeSat card (or SKY card?) and receive the missing channels without losing any from the Irish package ?

    I'm trying to get the best of both worlds here.

    I'm currently watching Digital Terrestrial TV from Limavady and have become hooked to CSI, Numbers & House on FiveUS so don't wanna lose that by getting Sky.

    TIA
    PK.

    You wont be able to receive channel 5 fiver or FiveUs with an ROI subscription. Its possible with a UK FTV card but it would mean swapping cards when you want to watch.

    Thanks...are there any channels on FTV that SKY don't carry ?
    Can I get Sky Sports or Setanta by using a FTV card and then ringing up to buy a subscription ?
