    is it a sky hd box and if so are you obliged to subscribe to a hd package?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 934 ✭✭✭LowKeyReturn


    Don't need to take HD, you do need to have a phone line connected to the box but the charge for not doing so is almost universally waived.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51 ✭✭rod1983


    I have some aswell if anyone else is looking for one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 240 ✭✭deadimmortal


    Wouldnt it be better for you guys to order Sky through fatcheese.ie and get up to €135 cash back or something like that, you get a free Sky+ box and free set up for ordering online. Plus if you want the HD box free just sign up for the HD package and cancel it after you get the box.

    Locked into a 12 month contract for HD as soon as services are activated.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 192 ✭✭billius


    Quick (stupid) question: is this for new or existing customers? Have to change from old digi box to Hdbox (multiroom) and was wondering if this voucher would do the trick?

    Its for new customers only.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 46,716 ✭✭✭✭muffler


    Im not sure if others have got different vouchers than mine but just to explain that the offer is for new customers who phone in with a code and the "referrer's" account number. The new customer will get a Sky+ HD box and will have to agree to a 1 year contract but will get €50 back which equates to almost half price for 4 months when taking the basic pack.

    Other details include paying €30 for standard setup and having the box connected to a landline although as previously stated this can be overcome.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,104 ✭✭✭groom


    Fatcheese is a better option for people thinking of signing up. This'll prompt people to suggest fatcheese don't pay up but it sounds like sky transactions get paid fine


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,924 ✭✭✭eamon234


    I have 3 here - PM me for details.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,462 ✭✭✭loveisdivine

    Hi
    Just signed up to sky and emailed them when I noticed they had charged me for HD service. I only wanted the normal sky box not hd.
    I got an email back today stating that they don't provide the normal sky box anymore, only the hd one.
    I think there is an extra charge of approx €10 per month for this, so perhaps before you sign up, just double check with them.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,385 ✭✭✭Preset No.3


    This isnt really a bargain. Girlfriend signed up to sky last week, got the free box and with a bit of a push got half price for 3 months.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    it's a bargain for the existing subscribers that you give the referral code for though :)

    @biddybops - surely you can still get the Standard def service with the HD box though, in which case the only charges should be the upfront charge for the box, which they've waived, and any setup charge?

    I had ordered the standard box but noticed when I paid an extra charge was added on. I couldn't refresh the page to find out what the extra charge was for and it was only when I got an email from sky telling me I had ordered the hd box that I could then query it.
    I just think its bad practice and sky should remove the option for the standard box instead they just automatically bill you for an option you did not request.

    Sky provide all new customers with HD boxes at no extra cost but you dont get the HD pack unless you specifically subscribe to it.

    How were you charged extra exactly?

    It is an extra €10 (approx) per month for hd.

    Just checked the website, they are still offering a choice of either sky+ or sky+ hd.
    If, as I have been informed, they don't provide the standard sky+ box, why is it still available on the website??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 46,716 ✭✭✭✭muffler


    As I said it appears to be Sky's practice to supply all new customers with a Sky+ HD box when they sign up. The standard box (without + features) is available for multiroom only.

    Im confused as to why you are being charged an additional €10 per month. There is no extra charge for the HD box but it seems as if you are paying a reduced sub (normally €15/month) for a HD subscription. Is the HD part of an offer or what?

    The email I got from sky stated that they were no longer providing the sky+ box, only the HD box. I see from sky, as you point out, the extra cost is €15 per month, not as I thought €10 per month!
    I see nothing on their website stating that a sky+ box is only available to multiroom customers.
    Perhaps you can tell me where I can find this as information as it contradicts the information I was given in the email?

    I never said that.

    What I did tell you, and this is based on my own personal experience and what has happened to friends and family together with what I've read on the satellite forum, is that Sky provide a HD box to all new subscribers. If you want multiroom also you get 2 boxes obviously - the main one is a Sky+ HD box and the box for multiroom is a standard definition box.

    I cant tell you what or whats not on the Sky website. You need to take that up with them directly.
