Yep!! Fine in theory, but, the reality could be that VM is just as likely to shaft you by replacing your STB with some decade old "so-called refurbished" Pace poo that is not man enough to handle the demands of todays network and which promptly "falls over" as soon as the box swapper steps out of your front door with your old "broken?" Sammie under his arm.
Both VM and Sky's system contain pitfalls just waiting for the consumer to fall into. Bottom line is, if you're in luck you will have a good experience. Get a Friday afternoon appliance and you will likely be stuffed with reconditioned poo from both.
One difference though, New Sky Installs get a NEW box, this is not necessarily the case with VM installs as I understand it.
