ChezTinns Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 The house we are purchasing currently has Sky set up (English version) and they are leaving it!! - how do I get a viewing card? Not really that bothered about getting anything other than BBC1, 2, ITV 1 ,C4 and C5 Have checked on Sky website etc but remain totally confused.

Cat Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 You probably want freesat from Sky, if they have left the digi-box you'll only need to buy a card, costs £20 for all the standard UK terrrestial channels (unless they were nice enough to have left the card as well). Remember though that you'll need to phone from a UK phone number and give a UK delivery address for the card, or get some friends in the UK to do that for you. You'll also need to phone Sky when the card is delivered to get it activated, again from a UK phone number.http://www.freesatfromsky.co.uk/?pID=6If you need to buy a digibox you could try looking on ebay, as a secondhand box will do the job nicely.Hope this helps.

Baz Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Just a small further point to Cathy response, the UK given address must have a current TV licence in force.Baz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
