Thanks very much for that Pepito! I phoned Sky on my UK mobile with no problems, and can now get ITV1 and 2, as well as Channel 4 and Five Well worth £20 for 3 years. It did take a while for some of the channels to appear, as you mentioned, but ITV2 was enabled straight away. In case anyone else needs to phone Sky to get their Freesat card set up, but has to get a friend in the UK to do it, the things you need to note down and pass on to your friend can be found using the Sky remote-control Services Button; then 4 System set-up 5 System details then make a note of the manufacturer, model number, version number, serial number, viewing card number, operating system number, EPG software version. (You won't need all of this, but it may help to avoid any akwardness when calling Sky). They will also need to tell Sky the UK address the card was supplied to, and the telephone number. If Sky ask if the digibox is connected to a phone line, the answer is no. Happy Viewing!
