    Just got a freesatfromsky card from a mate in England. It says on the letter with it that I just have to leave it in the box for a couple of hours for it to be activated. It doesn't say anyting about the box having to be connected to the phone line for this to happen. I thought I had to ring Sky with the serial number of the box to have it activated(with my number blocked!)??

    Anyway it's in the box now so I guess time will tell.

    If I do need to phone sky are they there 24 hours?

    You will need to phone the number on the letter with your own number blocked( blocked by dialing 141 before the 0044)

    it wont activate without contacting the ftv people

    pretend that you are your mate and you live in England

    They will ask for the box serial number etc so be in front of the tv.

    Thanks for that - just rang them. They've asked me to update the software first and ring them back when it's done they're open until 11pm

    Interstingly even the BBC channels weren't there before the software update - they only appeared after it. Anyway I've just rang to activate the card so should have all the channels soon.
