Re: General Sky TV Discussion
I'm on friends and family, 50% off, and pay £36.25 per month for Family with Sports & Movies HD. The price rises indicate my package will be going up by £4.00. Does anyone know if, as a friends and family customer, my package will go up by £2.00 rather than £4.00? If it goes up by £4.00 then that's a 11% increase. Would that entitle me to terminate my contract without penalty?

Do you know when this will be communicated to customers by e-mail / post? If the info published on the SKY website anywhere? Struggling to find info

That is until people start saying `enough` and cancel their sport sub. The bubble has to burst sometime.

Re: General Sky TV Discussion
It would be nice for Sky to add an option to download full seasons of TV shows all at once rather than having to set each episode to download individually. I can't be the only one that would love to see a 'Download Season' button?

Re: General Sky TV Discussion
Sort your Sky from your smartphone (Android & iOS)
Quote:
The Sky Service app will let customers:
• Manage your account
• Check and review their Sky package subscriptions
• Reset their TV PIN
• Check and change their Broadband Shield settings
• Set up and change which Sky+ HD box they send remote record requests to. (Remote record allows customers to record a show or Series Link at the touch of a button by using the Sky+ app)
• Check and change their engineer visit time and date
• Search: so whatever they want is easy to find with relevant Q&A
• Check their service status
• Request a call-back

Re: General Sky TV Discussion
Quick question for my SKY chums.
I have a SKY multiroom subscription with SKY+HD box in the living room plus SKY HD box in the bedroom. I've been offered a SKY+HD box for £20.00. If I buy the box, to replace the SKY HD box in my bedroom will I have to:
1. Call SKY to pair the card with the new box
2. Pay more than my current multiroom subscription to enable the recording features on my new box (I'll be looking to use full SKY+ features on both boxes)
I just can't seem to find this information on SKY's website.
Thanks guys

Number 1 = Yes. You will need to call Sky
Number 2 = No. You will not get charged any extra as the cost is part of the Multiscreen sub
