Moving House

    Hi folks,

    I am moving house in 4 weeks time.

    can I just take the sky+ box and leave the dish?
    and get an installer out to the new house?

    is there any benefit of canceling the current sub and rejoining again in the new house. wonder would there be any deal. . .

    opinions would be great.
    LNB

    What I'd do is.
    Cancel the sub. Take the sky+ box with you. Then re-sub (new) to sky+ in new house.

    That way sky will install all new gear with new 12 month warranty plus you have the orignal sky+ box as a spare incase the new box fails after 12 months.

    There are good deals for new customers half price for 3 months and HD box for 49

    I thought the HD box was good until i realized there's an extra charge for receiving the channels. . .:D:pac: My granddad would turn in his grave.

    I look at my regular Sky plus box and the signal quality, ok, put it up against a HD TV and the picture is better alright with the HD channels, put for the person who is paying like €15 pm extra for this, well. . i wont say, the post will be deleted. it was only 15 years ago rabbit ears and a fuzzy one and two with perfect sound was heaven in a lot of homes in Ireland

    also, I notice, If i did go with the HD box, I would assume all the HD channels would be together on the box.
    I currently notice on the reg box all the channels are scattered from 101 to 640. .again, this is just as bad as Paramount 2 on 128 and Paramount 2+1 on channel 159. . . . .. . . who makes these decissions:eek::eek::eek:

    Oh those were the days:D:D

    all the HD channels are listed in its own banner labled HD CHANNELS.

    The channels buy the EPG slots that go with the numbers.

    cancel the sub and re0-sub as a new customer in your new house. install will be free (i think) plus you can pay the installer in a brown envelope under the counter to setup your existing box in a different room
