    Has anyone done this?

    My mam has UPC in two rooms and my brothers have their own sky subscription in the house. My mam wants to switch to sky but will they have any issues with this? It'll be a separate contract, different packages and different billing details

    Not really - works out about the same monthly charge and with introductory packages she'll be slightly better off. Plus if they decide to change, switch or move and bring their account with them she won't be affected

    What they don't know, won't worry them. Just change your address slightly, eg if your address is 5 ABC Drive, change it to 5a ABC Drive. I know several people who have done it for various reasons and as long as Sky are getting their monthly subscription, they don't care.

    We have 3 accounts at one address, never had a problem. Only one of them is used at that address, the other two in the UK.

    When the sky installer comes he wont care how many connections you have.He will get you connected up as quick as he can and move on to the next job.

    Sky will give u a seperate acccount at the same address no problem if you are willing to pay full price for the packages then there is no issue at all.
