Multiroom and phone line

    This old chestnut! I have multiroom and always had the multiroom box connected to the phone line. I do not have my main box connected to a phone line.
    Anyway I was doing some work on my house recently and the phone line was removed and now my multiroom is not connected to the phoneline. Will I be getting a warning letter from Sky shortly? Or do most of you with multiroom no longer have it connected to the phone line?
    Thanks

    I'm amazed you didnt already get a letter from Sky if you had one box connected as this would have been doing callbacks while your second box wasnt able to....

    I personally think you have a better chance of getting away with it for a while now that none of your boxes are connected, and if you do get a letter you could always fix it then...

    In the last 6 years I got a letter twice from them saying they couldn't contact either of my 2 boxes - neither connected to a phone line. I connected the phone line to the first box, did a call-back and repeated it for the second. I then rang them back to confirm everything was in order -- said I was having intermittant problems with the phone line - they seemed ok with that

    Similar story to me, but now check your bill online, since a new software update a couple of months ago they don't send letters they just bill you for not having the phone line connected. it's about €9 extra per month and is on the bill as Debit Adjustment (bit sneaky). It took me a couple of months to cop on to it. I discussed the matter at length with an Indian call center worker and in the end she had convinced me to cancel.
