    Cheers. Any way to get around not putting in credit card details,?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 219 ✭✭IrishBlaine


    No, there is no workaround, Must need one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,118 ✭✭✭✭Seve OB


    nice one,
    i did it on the sky box and wasn't asked for card details


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,226 ✭✭✭boobar


    Whatever about no charge for the download...but to post you out a DVD as well, surely this won't be honoured?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Soarer


    Why does it mention "affiliate" in the link? Didn't think affiliate links were allowed.

    It's not an error. Actually says "get Rio on us and continue the adventure with a discount on the sequel" when you click into sky store.

    Cheers OP!

    I'm actually surprised how well that Sky Store app works too, buy the film in HD to stream + the DVD in the post for the same price Google Play/iTunes charge for just the film!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Soarer


    Good stuff OP.

    Hardest part doing it through the Skybox was remembering my PIN!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,571 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    FWIW, there was an affiliate link in there that was edited out by the OP.

    The Boards police are out in full swing I see. I see absolutely no affiliates mentioned in the link.

    Cheers op just downloaded it for the kids. It's a shame to think they are in watching films instead of been outside.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,394 ✭✭✭SCOOP 64


    Do you have to be paying for the HD package to download ?
    cant seem to download ?

    I don't have the hd package and it worked for me not sure if the dvd will come but that doesn't bother me its on the box.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 108 ✭✭TheMagee


    Worked for me without HD as well. Thanks OP.

    If we cancel our sky sub, can we still watch what we paid for?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,564 ✭✭✭Deep Thought


    Thanks...just got it

    Yeah I think so as it's downloaded to the box itself.

    But once it's deleted it cannot be redownloaded without an active Sky sub.

    Take out your sky card and see if u can watch it ? I didn't download it yet so I can't try that. I would be surprised if it plays without a sky sub.

    Sign of the times that I don't have a dvd player in the house anymore, so gonna have to rip it for the media player!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,118 ✭✭✭✭Seve OB


    no dvd yet, kids going mad for it as there is no sky box on their tv!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,226 ✭✭✭boobar


    Nice one received mine this morning....

    What is with Kids? Mine jumped around the kitchen this morning when the dvd arrived.

    But sure you have the download I said.

    I know she said but this is the dvd....nothing like getting a parcel in the post I suppose


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,118 ✭✭✭✭Seve OB

    DVD arrived and kids are going mad
    Thanks again OP


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 817 ✭✭✭iano.p

    Is your order still on the sky store website OP, or is it gone, like mine?
    I'm thinking that they may just expire after a bit and disappear.

    Let's not lose hope anyway, if others got it, we may still be in luck :D

    Did you guys order through the website on via your box? I went through the box and it arrived. The order came up on my bill with a charge of €0.00 but it does not appear to be there anymore


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,583 ✭✭✭marcbrophy


    I went through the website on my phone.

    It could be in transit then, maybe? :)
